We left Amsterdam on a train to
Frankfurt. It was an ICE brand train and it lasted four hours
(good thing we were in 1st class). We arrived in the sleazy end of town near
the railway station at the Mercure Hotel. We went for a bit of a
stroll before coming back to our apartment. Then I picked out a traditional
German restaurant called Apfelwein Klaus. It's in the basement of a
building in a backstreet. They claim to have been serving for at least 100
years.
30/9/18
We went down to the main
station and got tickets for the on/off tour bus around Frankfurt. We rode until
we got to the botanic gardens. We saw many different types of flora (and even a
little bit of fauna, including a noisy bird we heard in the palm section). We
also saw a couple squirrels bouncing around. Then we stopped for coffee and
cheesecake. It was very delectable.
We got back on the tour bus and
went to the Old Town. It's a much more attractive part of Frankfurt. It was so
crowded that we finally figured out where everyone goes on a Sunday in
Frankfurt. We came home and looked for a place to have dinner which was very
hard considering most restaurants in Frankfurt close on a Sunday. We eventually
found a unique place called Vapiano. You're given one card each and
you go up to different parts of the restaurant to order pizza, pasta, antipasti,
salads, etc.










Good pictures Riley.. How was the Indonesian restaurant in Amsterdam ? Why did Dad book a hotel in the red light district? Are you still drinking beer ?

DeleteThe Indonesian restaurant was fantastic.
DeleteWe weren't in the Red Light District.
I had a taste of one of Dad's beers but I didn't like it. I prefer fruity beers.
