1st Saturday Downtown Frankfurt

On Friday, we had a fun picnic with two other senior couples, Elder and Sister Stay and Elder and Sister Wing.  We had chicken, potato salad, watermelon, chips, and cookies.  It was a beautiful evening and we had lots of fun.

 

Saturday morning, we had a baptism at the church which was from the German Branch, so it was all in German.  However, we learned at the spirit can be heard and felt in any language.

We then went downtown to check out Frankfurt.  We rode the tram with Elder and Sister Wing.  There was a political rally going on so there were many people and lots of yelling on the loud speakers.   We had lunch at a wonderful fish restaurant and had chocolate cake at an cute little outside café.
