SNOW!

Our latest weekend trip brings us to Frankfurt-am-main, the capital of Germany. Initially we resented the idea of going to Frankfurt, a really busy financial center (think Raffles Place x100). Anyhoo, since my Lonely Planet travel guide advised that the trip to Frankfurt 'will be beyond your expectations', we went ahead to explore Frankfurt with our Hattenheim gang.
Frankfurt is divided into 2: a historic half and a modern city half. We (duh) focused on the older part of the city and it was really lovely:)

That's the Kaiserdom behind me...
The marketplace that holds flea market every Saturday...
?Did you know? In german architecture, the more wood you have on your house, the richer you are. You notice the wooden xxxxx on the buidlings? These belong to really rich people!

The highlight of the day was of course, SNOW! It started having flurries of snow when we were walking to to Frankfurt Stock Exchange. It got heavier after we had our dinner. We were so excited we took our beers outside to 'bask' in the snow:)

Excellent article. I recently passed this to my coworker Luann who was
doing some sort of studies on the subject of largest saltwater crocodile
dies. He just bought me a beer as I found it.
Thus many thanks!
