Frankfurt on a Sunday.

Sadly, we arrived in Frankfurt on a sunday, not knowing that sunday is everyone's rest day.. The street was empty and deserted. While walking towards the Rhine river, we took a few photos. (Ermm.. actually quite alot! haha.) We were really hungry by then and the worst thing wsa that we couldnt find any cafes or shops that were open! Not a single one! And guess what?? MacDonald's caught our eyes! A meal in Mac costs us double the price of a meal in Singapore and we have to pay for the sauces. Only tomato sauce or mayonaise is provided. And we can only choose one! So giam, right? In the end, the 3 yao guis had to make do with MacDonald's...

We continued with our journey towards the Romerburg and not long later, we could see crowds - both tourists and the germans alike. What caught my eyes was the bread store. Have been very attacted to all the sandwich bars and bakeries ever since I step into Germany. And this is one of them..

At Romerburg, we could see the timble-frame houses, said to be rebuilt to create the prewar look of Frankfurt. These houses created a lovely atmosphere if one were to hang out with the love ones or friends at the beer gardens just within the houses. Can also choose to sit outside to people-watch while seeping beer! How nice??! But we didnt la.. Not within our means.. financially.. (although we didnt really check out the prices) Haha! We also went into the St Nicholas Church (Nikolaikirche) which was situated beside the houses. Apparently, there was a music sharing session going on, and out of curiosity. we sat in. Although we wanted to hear afew songs, it was arranged to be played only towards the end (like 3 hours later?) and we decided not to stay. It is quite a lovely church, actually.

Along the Rhine River in Frankfurt, there were a total of 6 (if i'm not wrong) churches. And all of them have their own unique facade. I eapecially like this one best because it looks like a castle and it's really magnificent! Reminds me of where the witches stay and make disgusting potions in horror cartoons. Then there would be bats flying around the tip of the castle at midnight. Rubbish ling! :p

This picture is really funny! Jason wanted to take a picture of us with the 6th church & the Rhine River as background. This guy was so freindly, he actually wanted to be included in the picture too! haha..

Hmm actually , he was being nice to pause while we were taking a picture. Jason thought he has got the best position and didnt want to shift the camera. As the guy was obstructing the shot, Jason signaled for him to walk but he refused to. So in the end Jason had no choice but to carry on with the photo.

This is the bridge that crosses the Rhive River. We walked over it several times due to directional mistakes!

The best part of Frankfurt would be the 2 following views:

Standing on the opposite side of the river, you can see an interesting contrast of Frankfurt Main. The left side potrays modern and typical office towers ( the business district), while the right side, a more traditional and old-fashion houses and churches.

We marked the end of our day with a stroll back to our hotel. We were really tired after a whole day out, walking most of the time. This is my favourite picture of the day! A snapshot of Frankfurt's busiest business district in a sunday, with a spectrum of rays! heh.

A day has passed, a day closer to King..
