Well, I didn't sleep at all on the 8.5 hour flight from Chicago to Frankfurt. Neither did I on the 1.5 hour train ride from the airport to the hotel. I got here and was absolutely exhausted, but I've been forcing myself to stay awake so I can handle the jet lag as soon as possible. It's now 6pm.
I forced myself to walk around the city for an hour or two and snapped a few photos. Everything is very walkable. There are tons of shops and restaurants right out our doorstep. The city is surrounded by hills lined with wineries. In the city, there's a good mix of historical buildings along with very modern architecture.
Here's a glimpse of the historical street walks that snake through the town:
And here's the Esslingen University of Applied Sciences, in the center of downtown.
Those side streets look amazing! and the walkableness is wonderful.

Hi Kate,
ReplyDeleteI was sent over here for work for 2 months. We have an office in Esslingen. My girlfriend Kara was able to get a leave from work and come as well.
