Put on your Adam's or Eve's costume at night to sweat out all the poison you were exposed to for the last 5 days✖
LOCATION:
AQUALAND Freizeitbad • Merianstraße 1 • 50765 Köln - Bus Stop: MERIANSTRASSE
✖
At our second Carnival in Cologne CS Meeting in 2006 I rather spontaneously suggested to go in the evening to the "Aqualand", a fun pool and sauna SPA ( https://aqualand.de/saunawelt/ ) - and to my own surprise all of the (by then) remaining 11 people said yes!
In the almost 20 years since then the numbers of people who join change - we've had years where just one person joined Hanna and Ulf and years where we were a dozen or more. But since Hanna and Ulf will go anyways (even if it were just the 2 of us) we'll do it again this time!
We'll be watching the Rose Monday Parade till about 15:30 near FRIESENPLATZ metro stop (see the " Carnival 2025 MON 03 03 DAY ROSEMONDAY PARADE" Event Page - ☞!ⒻⒾⓃⒹ ⓁⒾⓃⓀ ⒷⒺⓁⓄⓌ!☜).
After that we'll go straight to the Aqualand from there to make most use of the 33,90 € we'll have to pay for a day ticket - for if we arrive there by 16:30 at the latest then we'll have about 6 hours to spend there in which time there'll be 10-11 pouring ceremonies to attend🙂
If 34 € is too much for you then you might wanna consider joining us later and be at the Aqualand by 19:15 to get in at 19:30 sharp for the "Late rate" for 23,90 € - but then you will only have 3 1/2 hours to spend there...
The AQUALAND is in Chorweiler up in Cologne's north-west. Metro line #15 goes straight from FRIESENPLATZ up north to CHORWEILER and from there it's just 2more bus stops to Merianstraße, right next to the AQUALAND. Alternatively, one can take #12 all the way up to MERKENICH and then take a bus to Merianstraße from there (the AQUALAND is basically in the middle between CHORWEILER & MERKENICH).
You begin right there and then to get well again after 5 days of too much alcohol, lots of cigarette smoke and not really too healthy food - by sweating out all the poison😉
For the waterpark including a couple of really cool water slides you'll need swimming gear - in the sauna area, however, nudity is mandatory!
You also need a towel big enough to fit your entire body on ("no flesh on wood" - another one of the retarded rules that you'll have to obey in German saunas, true temples of "Deutsche Spießigkeit"…)!
They also have restaurants inside the sauna area as well as inside the fun bath area where they sell food at really reasonable prices!
All information about all the slides you'll find on this page:
http://www.aqualand.de/badewelt/rutschen/
And check out the sauna area here:
http://www.aqualand.de/saunawelt/
We'll already bring all our swim and sauna stuff when we go to see the parade - I can store that at a place nearby from the location from where we'll watch the parade. All you need to bring are 1 to 2 towels really: 1 to sit on (golden rule: "No Flesh on Wood!") and perhaps another one to dry off afterwards. IF-NEED-BE I CAN PROVIDE A FEW EXTRA, TOO!!! And slippers, if you have any (not really mandatory - nobody checks!).
Also bring your swim trunks or swim suit if you wanna check out the fun bath area, too, including all the water slides!
After the sauna we should be back home sometime around midnight!

HOW "WE" GET TO THE AQUALAND:
If you wanna meet us while we're still watching the parade check out the " Carnival 2025 MON 03 03 DAY ROSEMONDAY PARADE" Event Page - ☞!ⒻⒾⓃⒹ ⒶⓁⓁ ⒸⓈ&ⒻⒷ-ⓁⒾⓃⓀⓈ ⒷⒺⓁⓄⓌ!☜)!
We'll leave for the Aqualand right after the parade at about 15:30 and take:
* EITHER metro line #15 all the way up to the final stop at CHORWEILER and then take the Bus #120 towards "Further Str." or #121 towards "Langel Fähre"
* OR metro line #12 all the way up to the final stop MERKENICH and then take the Bus #121 towards "Neusser Str./Gürtel" or "Dädalusring"
to arrive at MARIANSTR. bus stop and then walk the few meters to the Aqualand from there!!!
HOW TO GET TO THE AQUALAND ON YOUR OWN:
Get your own underground/tram schedule (for your date and time) from the "KVB-App" or google maps!
For destination use: Aqualand Freizeitbad, Köln
Or "Merianstr" which is the closest bus stop and once you're there you really CANNOT miss the "Aqualand" fun bath: https://goo.gl/maps/rV6aUJYvAJw
Contact us to make sure we're really there - THOUGH getting hold of one of us might be tricky and take a while. And once we're inside we'll obviously not have the phones on us at all (no real pockets when you're naked AND phones with cameras are not allowed inside the sauna area!).
Try the WhatsApp group and/or check the posts and discussion threads on the EVENT PAGES AND (if you can) CHECK THE DESCRIPTION HERE AGAIN FOR ANY LAST-MINUTE UPDATES (that I might even add after the "event started") BEFORE YOU COME TO JOIN US!
Also read "C: COMMUNICATIONS" on the Main Event Page "Cologne Carnival 2025 - THU 27 Feb -> TUE 04 Mar" - ☞!ⒻⒾⓃⒹ ⒶⓁⓁ ⒸⓈ&ⒻⒷ-ⓁⒾⓃⓀⓈ ⒷⒺⓁⓄⓌ!☜ !)!!!
If NONE of us answers his phone, then this will most probably mean, that we can't since we're indeed in the SPA🙂
