I was in Frankfurt, Germany, last year. The City is definetly very nice and beautiful. What adds to the beauty and the glamour of the City is the River Rheine. I would say Rheine is one of the most beautiful rivers on the European continent. Have you been there too ? Have you seen the Rheine ?

Train ride from Amsterdam to Frankfurt ! That would be very beautiful, I can imagine. I have not taken that train-ride, and I hope I will have the opportunity some day too. Thank you.

Many years ago I was stationed in Germersheim(Near Heidelberg) on the Rhine. Altogether, I spent about 7 years in Germany and my two oldest children were born there. Their Mother(my wife) made sure they spoke German before they ever learned English. Needless to say, I learned to speak German.
I have not been back since 1968, although my son has been back several times to see his Grandmother. I know a lot has changed since then but I will always have a very warm spot in my heart for Germany.
After all that time there, I actually struggled with the fact that I did not want to leave. I guess I sort of equate Germany with my youth, that is now gone.

Germany is a wonderful country. I was in Frankfurt a couple of times, a very nice City.
Thank you for your response.

I've visited Lake Constance (Known Locally as the Bodensee) which is the Source of the Rhine...I've also been to Frankfurt,having flown from there when I left..I haven't been to many other European ountries to be able to compare their Rivers,though!

Yes, I have read about Bodensee, but haven't been there yet. That must have been very nice.
I had a chance to see River Volga. That's another huge river.
Thank you for your response.

I haven't been to Germany in about 5 years, but yes, the Rhine is beautiful. I took a boat cruise on the river with my parents when we were there. It was amazing. My boyfriend has never been, but is obsessed with Germany and this is definitely on my list of places I have to take him!

Hi Adelida. A boat cruise must have definitely been very nice. I didn't get the time to take that cruise last time. I did see the boat from the banks. I will try next time. Oh yes, your boyfriend will really like that.

Yes in 1992 my husband and I spent 11 days in Germany. We were visiting our son who was stationed in Frankfurt. We took a river cruise up and down the Rhine. It was spectacular, we will go again some day.

That sounds wonderful. I was in Frankfurt and I enjoyed staying there. Missed the chance taking the cruise.
Thank you for your response.
