battery low...but still some photos to show

ok..just some lousy photos...camera just ain't working for night mode...battery is low.

road closed because of heavy snow. the trees covered in white were sooo beautiful. this was the view i watched all along from bad ems to limburg. if a deer came out from the woods, it would be like total fairy tale. luckily it did not snow in frankfurt.

from the car when we were on a hill. a village covered with snow. so christmassy.

this is the square outside goethestrasse in frankfurt. it is a church i think.

more shops here...but we did not go this way. aunt's friend only went to those expensive ones.

go straight, goethestrasse.

and now bad ems at night. was supposed to go out in the afternoon when the sky was bright, haiz...turned out tomorrow is brown bin rubbish day so aunt had to sweep the garden and rake the leaves. brown bin is for biogradable items. the day before yesterday was cardboard and paper collection day. i love their garbage management system!

hackers kurhotel in bad ems. we went out for an evening walk instead. well, it was so dark already by 6p.m. and cold....glove is a must!

the Maharishi Ayurveda Health Centre which is an award-winning alternative health clinic is housed in the historic Hackers Kurhotel--the former palace of Emperor William I, located in Bad Ems on the picturesque River Lahn. cool huh? the building is really impressive. and it is like hundreds of years old? but the rate is also not cheap lah. it is rated 4-star and the standard room starts from €89 inclusive of tax.

there is an indoor pool, with spa, sauna and stuff and the water from the sauna is direct from the mineral springs in bad ems wor.
when do i get a dip in these springs?

mmhhmmm...i can smell the chocolate from this house. in the lobby of the hotel.

the hotel across the river lahn.

one of the approved casinos in germany. spielbank means casino. it is really small i tell u and all machines. roulette machine, bingo, keno and slot. all together only 20 machines. €1 is collected as entrance fee.
conveniently located cigarette machines on most streets in germany. €4 a pack regardless of brands.
