25T02 hallo Frankfurt

Europe day 01 (E01), F01.

An uneventful flight across the great eastern pond. A warm sunny spring day on arrival and a first day in Frankfurt am Main.

But I’m very tired after another sleepless flight. I catch a few rays in a quick wander to consider Norman Foster’s Commerzbank tower and the neighbouring Four Frankfurt project with its 4 new towers.

Four Frankfurt, four new towers.

24T02 Hello again, Main-hattan

E01

It’s travel day number 2, having flown the red-eye over the big eastern pond, and landing in Frankfurt am Main for day 1 in Europe. Frankfurt is a familiar and welcome sight.

With shops closed, I’ve arrived to national statutory holiday Christihimmelfahrt (Ascension of Christ), but it’s also Europe Day, marking the 1950 anniversary of the Schuman declaration.

625pm light on the towers, from Frankfurt central station – 9 May 2024 (iP15).
