My father lived in Heidelberg for 16 years (1980-1996) and my frequent trips there helped define my childhood. After my first trip to Iraq I was flown home with 2 other guys via commercial air. We were lucky enough to fly Lufthansa and stop with a significant layover in Frankfurt. As such, I was …

Do you mean the Stay and Learn Hostel? It's about half a block north of the train station, across the street from the pub? I've stayed there a few times. Super easy to walk to (even with the ginormous rolly bag), and there is an elevator. Always a bonus in my book. There are lockers so that you…

If you're flying with BA to the UK (or presumably elsewhere) leave plenty of time for check in and to get to your departure gate.
There is the standard security check at passport control, however BA operate their own separate security check(complete with X-Ray and body search) just in front of B…

Museums
Museums in Germany are generally closed on Mondays (there are exceptions); the exact opening hours on other days depend on the museum. If you want to visit a museum on a public holiday, check with them before to be sure they open on that day.

When planning on celebrating New Year in Germany here are a few things you should know:
a) Germany is shut: This may sound odd but when I was there in 2006 virtually every shop, restaurant, bar, café and attraction shut down for two days on the 31st Dec and 1st Jan. This may have been influenced…

Frankfurt Hauptbahnhof is massive - probably the biggest train station I’ve ever been to!! (Hey - I'm not exactly Alan Whicker you know!)
The huge curved roofs house over 25 platforms from where you can catch a train to virtually anywhere in Europe and probably many places beside. Consequ…

I didn't get too see too much of Germany during my tour between 1979-1981. I spent most of the time working 12 hour shifts, 7 days a week. Our Air Force unit was undermanned, so we had to work the long hours (at no extra pay, of course).

I got to see a lot of Germany during this tour. My favorite was Rudesheim. I also loved the indoor swimming pools in Frankfurt.
Place in Germany are very clean (at least they were). Someone is always sweeping the sidewalks, picking up litter or planting flowers.
I recommend the Rhein River cru…
