And Schnitzels

We eventually got on another train that took us down the other side of the Rhine river with lots of lovely views of German mountains and villages.I followed Richard off the train, out the station and round the corner into Frankfurts Red Light District! Seriously I did not want to be in a red light district.. with my brother. But apparently that was where the Hostel was, I however didn't believe him so after rummaging aroung in my bag to find the leaflet I was proven wrong!

We checked in at 6:45 and were informed that the hostel were taking people out for a traditional German meal. So we agreed and very quickly found our room, got ready and gathered with two French guys. We were led by a german who worked at the hostel for a 15 minute walk to a little German place the other side of the river. 40 minutes later we arrived. Lucky for us they all spoke English, but unluckily for the French who didn't know what sauerkraut was, we had difficulty trying to explain what a cabbage was. I decided on German noodles- a bowl of thick noodles covered with cheese, with Apfelwine and lemonade. Richard went for the Schnitzel (according to The Book as the food of Germany) and a a big German beer!

We spent the next day using the free laptop rental!! To plan more route, places to stay and things to do. Once we had decided, we set of for another train journey round the mountains and to get our scenic route back to Frankfurt. Nearing the end of our trip we saw a very fancy castle type thing that we tried to take photos but there was way too many trees, but the train stopped and it was where we had to change trains. So we very quickly headed up the hill through this very unreal little village, it really looked like there should have been little wax people wearing lederhosen dotted around. We found the building took photos and headed back to the train and back to frankfurt for takeaway pizza!
