Blanco was another generous sponsor of the BlogTour Cologne trip, making the trip so special. Blanco gave the group one of its first impressions of Cologne, hosting an incredible evening and dinner on the first night at the German Museum of Olympic and Sport.  With lit torches out front, this incredible museum embodies a relaxed contemporary environment for an impressive collection of sports history. Everybody loves the Olympics, right?

The museum has interactive areas mixed throughout the exhibit.  BlogTour’s Alexandra Williams  experiences the wind tunnel simulation, as seen from both directions. The faster one pedals the stronger the wind~

 Lori Dolnick braves the balance beam — in the middle of the exhibit loaded with relics, great stories, old photography, and much to learn. The museum is gorgeous and so much fun.

 Blanco then wined and dined us exquisitely. We got to meet the Blanco team and some of Blanco’s Design Council, top kitchen designers from the US. From left to right:  Todd Vendituoli, Veronika Miller of Modenus,Tina Ramchandani ,Sarah Sarna , Courtney Price, Katie Treggiden, Christy Emens of Blanco, Jamie Gold, Kelly Morisseau, Frank Straub- Blanco Chairman of the Board

Blanco was so good to BlogTour Cologne bloggers. They even included us in their press breakfast the next morning, where we got the sneak peek of their latest products which are VERY exciting. More to come on that so stay tuned… that’s a whole separate post!

Thank you, Blanco for your gracious hospitality.
