A walk in the Taunus

We arrived in Frankfurt on a Lufthansa 747! Our trip to Europe more than 30 years ago was on a SwissAir 747. Then, we were seated on the upper deck, this time no such luck — we were in economy class mid-plane.

We are staying with “cousin” Heidi in the lovely Parkhotel am Taunus. It is located at the edge of the Taunus mountain range in the town of Oberursel — about 15km northwest of Frankfurt. It is beautiful here at the edge of the forest. We took a walk in the forest and tried to get into the Frankfurt time zone. 

We’ll have dinner tonight at a restaurant further into the mountains. 

Tomorrow we will go into Frankfurt and start with a visit to the Frankfurt Jewish Cemetery where Ralph’s and Heidi’s grandparents are buried.
