Concorde Hotel

I was greeted by my husband with a rose at the airport after my 9 1/2 hour flight to Frankfurt. Isn't that sweet?
We had a nice view from our terrace of other buildings. The terrace was available to everyone in the hotel, but few knew about it.
It was nice having the terrace just outside of our room. We liked to sit out there in the evenings and relax. I also liked sitting out there during the afternoons drinking tea and reading a book. Sometimes, I would almost pinch myself because it just didn't seem real. I thought I must be dreaming.
Our room as simple, but nice. I didn't watch much television while I was there. I tried watching The Big Bang Theory, but since it was in German, the jokes tended to be lost on me. I could only watch so much of BBC news.
The bahnhof (train station) was a mere 1/2 block away, making it soooo convenient.
I still haven't figured out how I ended up with the smallest closet . . .

Did you miss me?

Did you miss me? I have been away. I have been on a wonderful trip to Germany and would go back in a heartbeat. I was blessed to have spent the last month soaking up the beautiful sights and eating fabulous food. It's probably good that I didn't stay longer; I gained a pound a week. I made a rule for myself that I would take the stairs so that it would help me not to put on TOO much weight. Since we stayed on the 5th floor, that was lots and lots of steps.
In the next few posts, I will share with you some of the wonderfulness that I experienced. I hope you will join me!


Tschüss,
Teresa
