Last and Certainly Least, Frankfurt

It’s not that I didn’t like Frankfurt, I actually did like it, it just kind of paled in comparison to all the cool stuff we had just done. The city is a mix of old and new, except that the old is pretty new because the city got hit real heard during WWII. So they recreated “old town” so it kind of has a fake feel to it.

We kept to our usual m.o. and just kind of wandered around the city. We caught a beautiful sunset at the top of Main Tower:

So pretty!

After the sunset we went to find authentic German food. Unfortunately for Kathleen authentic German food is in no possible way vegan. And on top of that, authentic German places don’t speak English and we don’t speak German, so when we tried to ask if Kathleen if she could bring outside (vegan friendly) food in, our waiter could only say enough English to yell, “Well I cant help you lady!” and run away. Eventually another waiter came over and brought Blake, Jason and I the meat and dairy we were craving, and then Kathleen had the best falafel of her life after our dinner, so all was well.

Blake and I had to catch a super early flight the next morning (Ryan Air gets us again with their low, low prices but inconvenient airports!) so we just reflected on our awesome trip in silence on Saturday night. Or packed and hung out like normal people, your pick.
