Frankfurt au Main and Mainz
We are nearing the end of our tour and have arrived in Frankfurt via a train from Fulda. We checked in and ate lunch then had a steaming 39 degree heat wave to cope with during our city tour. The city itself was mostly destroyed during the war so the houses and main sites are full restored replicas . We stood in the main square and iI was amused to find I was the only one to mention Jim Morrison played here! We then toured various city sites including the gothic cathedral. Dinner was a local Bavarian style beer garden restaurant. The schnitzel was amazing naturally tasted better with a few Hefeweizen. In the evening our guide had bought us film institute tickets to a film noir showing of the Berlin Express mostly filmed in post war Frankfurt and Berlin. Tomorrow we meet Deutsche Bank officials. Auf Weidersen!
