Day 8—March 3, 2023 Frankfurt, Germany

Time to head back to Frankfurt for the last couple of days of our adventure. We took an Uber from the hotel to the Paris Est to catch the ICE train back to Germany. When we arrived at the train station, we were eating breakfast at the restaurant in the station, when we were asked to leave the building. Everyone, not just us. The whole station was locked down. No train in or out. After several inquiries, we found out that there was a bomb threat in the train station. It took over an hour to get the all-clear. We were finally on our way.

The train ride was uneventful. It was interesting to see so many people with bicycles getting on the train. The countryside was beautiful.  We enjoyed some great local German food. I had a local beer and Audra had a local wine. She had beef medallions, and I had the hassenpfeffer. We walked around the area near the hotel and called it an early evening.

Day 9—March 4, 2023 Frankfurt, Germany

We got an early start on Day 9, our final day of the Bash the Winter Blues-Europe Edition. We walked around Frankfurt and took in as many sites as we could. I took advantage of the architecture to get some good street photos.

We stumbled onto a peaceful demonstration. We toured the Cathedral of St. Bartholomew and St. Paul’s Church
