Today was our last full day in Europe. Tomorrow we are driving our rental car to Frankfurt Airport and we are going home. The last couple of days have felt a little weird because almost all of our trip was planned out. The portion of the trip that was not planned out were these last two days in Frankfurt. We knew we were coming here and knew that we would "figure it out" when we got here. It felt kind-of weird because over the last couple days we felt like we were, sort of, wandering with no specific direction.
The direction we took today was to hop on a double-decker bus and take a guided tour of Frankfurt that way. While walking to the bus stop though we crossed a pedestrian bridge that is unique and known for its "Locks of Love". From one end of the bridge to the other people have attached a "lock of love." See the below picture and you'll know what I mean.
The bus tour was actually very interesting and we learned that although Frankfurt is not the biggest city in Germany, it certainly seems to have a very big upside with a lot of future planning and construction for the future going on. They have a very busy and bustling Galleria shopping area and this is a central hub for much of what goes on in Germany, to include banking and many other business ventures.
Our evening ended with a very nice meal outside on a patio of a nearby restaurant, followed by a walk down to the river for a good night Frankfurt picture. After that we could not resist a nice glass of wine and Apple Strudel.
Good night Frankfurt and good night to what turned out to be a very nice vacation.
