Frankfurt, Germany
I got into Frankfurt about 8:15pm on the 7th -- Doug went on to Dusseldorf and I stayed here, as my flight back to the States the next day (today). I stayed at the Intercontinental Hotel and after flirting with the hotel clerk at bit at check in, was upgraded to a suite with a great view over the Main River and downtown.
My flight out was not until 2:30pm, so I had time to take a walk along the Main River to the older part of Frankfurt. I saw the Dom, or Cathedral, and the Romer (the old city hall). I think my favorite spot was the one you see in all the postcards from Frankfurt of the gingerbread looking houses. It was on a nice square with lots of shops, people and interesting things to see.
My flight out was on American Airlines to Chicago and I was upgraded to Business Class. I made it back to Austin around 7 that evening -- what a great trip -- 4 new countries in about a week!
