Day

Before
We’ve got an early flight and it is short, so the arrival at
Frankfurt is expected to be around 9 AM. We’ll take the train and leave
the baggage at hotel.
Then we’ll have the entire day to explore
Frankfurt’s Old Town.
The spots marked at map are:
0- Hotel Europa Style
1- Goethe House
2- Romerberg
3- St. Bartholomew's Cathedral
4- St. Paul's Church
5- Hauptwache
6- Eschenheimer Tower
7- Alte Oper
|
After
Flight is good but Eva injures her foot just after
landing
and cannot walk, so we take the train to Hauptbahnhof Station by 4.65€
each. We get the Hotel Europa Style slowly from there.
 
Hotel is good and we rest a bit before taking a taxi to the
nearest hospital which, based on the staff in the reception desk, is
the Universitatsklinikum, just across the river. We pay 6€ for the taxi
ride.
We spend six hours in emergencies for three visits: the first with the
doctor, the one for the x-rays and the final one for the cure, based in
a cast for the food. The invoice is for 208€, which we must pay as we
haven’t got the European Sanity card and because our insurance will pay
part of the money back after the claim.
When my
wife is leaving this hospital using crutches and the recommendation of
immobilization and rest for six weeks it’s clear that every day of this
travel will require quite improvisation by us.
 
 
Somehow, today is done. I only manage to take a quick walk by
Frankfurt’s city center at dusk while Eva is resting at bed and I get
the medicines.
