Stupid Tourist

Wiesbaden, Germany

Friday 25 April 2008

Today after a lot of farting around in Frankfurt this morning I went off to see Wiesbaden.Its not too far and is not really a city of any substance, but it made a nice day trip, and the train ticket also included the city of Mainz.

I got the U-Bahn at around 1pm and it took about half an hour to get there. While I was posting some postcards, this little old lady came up to me and started rambling at me in German, I told her I didn't understand and she picked up one of my lingering rastas and said some thing with a smile on her face and walked off."Dunka Seine!" I called after her.I can only hope she said "I like your plaits" and not "You're a drain on society" or else I'll have looked really silly for thanking her.

I wandered around aimlessly for a while as I do, before I found the church of St. Paul, which was really impressive in anyones language.It was a big red brick, gothic style building and that to my eyes made it quite unique as gothic buildings almost always appear dark.The inside of it was also impressive.

I wandered around the town a little more and saw lots of little cute buildings.The town square was quite nice as was the big park in front of the museum, which I sat in for a bit, watching the ducks in the fountain before walking back to the station, which was quite a long way off by now.I got on the train and headed back towards Frankfurt.
