Frankfurt am Main

The Philippine forum meeting was held on Saturday in Hessen and I had a blast of fun being with other Filipinas. I literally forgot I am in this cold Germany. I had a heart to heart talk with this lady on far right on the photo below. She was with her two kids when she came here to Germany, unfortunately the job agency/recruiter turned out to be a child traficker. Her children were sold in different families and she fought for 13 months to get back all of them. She was the reason the law against human traficking was created in Germany. She's a one tough Momma. Mabuhay po kayo Ate Suzy!







After the meeting, we headed to Frankfurt for sight-seeing.First we wandered by foot around the old city and here is our map. It's kind of big.






















Water fountains are everywhere.

This place was recently flooded by heavy rains, that is why as you can see, it is muddy.

These ducks come up to you when you feed them with bread.

The architechtural design of this church is splendid.




Great way to tour around the city is with a bicycle. Good thing we brought it with us.

The weather was very nice, the sun was shining and drizzling has stopped for a few hours. Gorgeous sky over here!

This is the Main River.

Crossing to the other side of the river where the financial, banking, commerce centers can be found.





I was thrilled to see these tall buildings. Feels like I am in Ayala, Makati.



Look what we saw! The competitor company of the former employer!





The mandatory jump shot in front of the Ratstelle. Take note, one take lang yan ah!

This place is the "Römer", German word for Roman.



Dom Sankt Bartholomäus, a gothic building constructed in the 14th and 15th centuries.
