Stage 11: Frankfurt - Mainz (Fort)

Foilsithe: 12.04.2019

I am comfortably lying in Guntersblum (almost exactly halfway between Mainz and Worms) in the Super-Pension Schlummerstube and I have the opportunity to continue writing my blog from Wednesday. Yesterday at the youth hostel in Mainz, the internet was not stable enough, and besides that, Eintracht Frankfurt was playing against Benfica Lisbon.

It was a lovely breakfast with Michaela, a day couldn't start any better:


Industry and the northernmost vineyards alternate, there is an incredible noise in the Main Valley, along with the flight path from the airport.

In the restaurant Waldesruh near Weilbach, I have an untrue experience, can it be topped? I have a conversation with the host, Willi, and I tell him that I am from Thuringia. He knows a well-liked guest from Arnstadt: Gerd Malsch, who unfortunately hasn't been there for a long time. Gerd Malsch was in the same class with me until the 8th grade and lived with me at the Wollmarkt!

Lost in emotions, I miss the direction: the Plane Tree Avenue is too beautiful:


The northern latitude for wine growing has been reached, as well as the place from which Bonifatius was carried from Mainz to Fulda:

After 39 km, I arrive in Mainz-Kastell, at the confluence of the Main and Rhine rivers, and take the bus to the youth hostel where I booked for 2 nights.
