Frankfurt for a few days!

Hello! Here’s a quick update on Frankfurt, then next up a post about the holidays with the Nespors!

We spent a few days in Frankfurt and really enjoyed it! Frankfurt is a city that has a neat blend of really old, cool buildings with ultra modern skyscrapers. Eric and I both agreed that Frankfurt is not necessarily a city we would recommend to someone doing a short vacation in Europe BUT we thought it would be a great city to live in. There seemed to be a lot of jobs, especially in finance and banking, everyone was really nice and seemed to be enjoying life, and there seemed like a good amount to do in the city (mainly centered around beer gardens in the summer and hot apple wine in the winter). All in all, a good stop but nothing too special to note – except for the enormous Christmas market!! :)

Small Travel Mishap

Hello! I’m writing this from Frankfurt – we made it! We’ve been here two days, but had a little mishap getting here. Our plane from Lisbon, Portugal to Frankfurt was at first delayed, then cancelled! They rescheduled it for the next day. Luckily they put us up in a hotel and took care of all the transportation to and from the airport. Phew! It was quite a day, full of waiting, many lines, and trying to figure out what was going on, when all the announcements were in Portugese haha. But, the important thing is that we made it! We even were able to go to the Christmas market in Frankfurt (which was huge and amazing!!) later that evening.

Now Christmas with the Nespor family, yay! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all!

Now that is a full airport!
