As I mentioned in my previous post my next destination was Wiesbaden, the capital of the state of Hesse, well known for its thermal and mineral springs. As much as thermal baths sound alluring I didn’t have enough time to go to one. During the limited time I was there I walked around the Old Town and had a glass of red wine in an outside cafe on one of the narrow, pretty streets. I was thinking to myself that Wiesbaden is one of the lucky cities which didn’t get destroyed during WWII and, therefore, one is still able to see the old buildings built even before WWI.It was early in the morning and dark when I left Wiesbaden and arrived in Frankfurt before the sun was out. Autobahns were already filled with cars and crossroads had a number of people waiting for the green light to cross the street. I quickly found the mall which had a roof platform from where you could have the view of the entire city. Luckily it was a clear day and I enjoyed a magnificent view of Frankfurt. I walked to the Rein river to go over the foot bridge but it was closed due to the flooding, just like the Schokoladen Museum in Cologne. It really took some playgrounds underwater. I quickly starting digging my dictionary for the word „flood“ but before I found it I saw the sign. It was as simple as „Hochwasser“. I thought to myself, „Well, that makes sense“.Below find a photo of Wiesbaden and the flooding-sign in Frankfurt. Till I get to Munich!
