It's a 45 minute train ride to Frankfurt (metro population 5,600,000).
As soon as we got off the train, we needed sausage! Maria loves her sausage & Colin loves his mustard, which is why there is so much on this giant beef stick!
We toured around checking out the cool old building in the city's center that actually survived the bombings of WW2. 80% of this city was destroyed.
(These are actually reconstructions.)
This city hall is one of the oldest in the world, we believe it was built in the 12th century.
We needed a low key day so the four of us did a river cruise, it was only 7.50 Euros each.
We walked and toured and looked for Birkenstock shoes, which are German, but apparently aren't that common in Germany. Hardest. Shoe. To. Find. During our walk we ended up high above the city on an observation deck!
But the coolest thing about the whole Frankfurt trip was this guy..
On his front is a grill full of hot dogs & sausages. Attached to his back are the condiments! He's well set up!
We tried to rent this, or atleast see it.. But it was a no go on both fronts... Beer Bike Click the beer bike link!
