Writes of Passage

A lovely town near Frankfurt with good hiking trails.

… Altes Rathaus, 1658 …

Oberursel (Taunus) is a small city northwest of Frankfurt. We took S Bahn to Oberursel Bahnhof and hiked forest and the little town. The day pass was $12.67, can be used unlimited for up to five riders.

Another go to place. It’s next to Goethe University and the landmark Bockenheimer Warte. Convenient, good service and food, no complains.

After the long hike @ Oberursel I was happy to see this vendor by the Warte on a Sunday afternoon. The near by supermarket was closed.

The farmer or seller had white asparagus (Spargel) and strawberries (Erdbeeren), etc.

A box of strawberry weights 500 g and sold for €3.50. She picked each box before selling it. I have a €5 in my pocket and asked if I could have €5 worth of berries.
“No.” She said.
“How about sell me box and half?”
“No I can’t.”

Can not lah! Gosh, a vendor has only one way to sell. Oh well.

A huge protest was in motion by the European Central Bank in Frankfurt during lunch hour, on tatort klimakrise / climate crisis. A sizable crowds marched onto Neue Mainzer Str then left onto Untermainkai along the river Main. I crossed Untermainbrücke onto Schweizer Str., heading to lunch at Gemalten Haus.
