Thursday March 13th I visited Frankfurt.
A storm passed by on Wednesday, but on Thursday the weather calmed down.
The weather was sunny and bright (with an occasional shower), ideal weather for zoom-pictures.

Hope you like the pix.

Very nice, I love the view.
Frankfurt is probably the city in Europe I want to visit most right now.

Europe's Atlanta is looking good!

Great photos!

This view will definitely change dramatically in the coming years with 4-5 new major skyscrapers going up between the Messeturm and the DZ Bank.

Stunning photos, to say the least. That first one is just mindblowing.

In that last pic, I'm guessing they're fixing up the church on the lower left? I remember scaffolding going up last summer.
