Funny dialect that is. But not if you are one of Richard Wag-ner’s Rhine maidens by the name of Woglinde, Wellgunde, Floßhilde who feature prominently in his opera "Rhinegold". At the bottom of the Rhine, that’s where you sing like that. Düsseldorf’s own Rhine maidens will be singing on the
Rhine too on 30 June when the first dance event, blue parade® (www.blueparade.de), is launched. From Düsseldorf to Cologne and back, 4,000 techno fans will be hotting up and chilling out on three industrial barges converted to blue boats, the flagship barge being a converted car transporter. After the eight hour long Rhine cruise, the party will continue into the morning in one of Düsseldorf’s most popular clubs. Tickets are US$15 each. Wallala weiala weia..
