Frankfurt and Berlin!

So, last night we made it to Frankfurt, Germany at about 11:30 p.m. We found a hostel that was extremely close to the train station. The station, the hostel and everything else in Frankfurt was really nice! But, the hostel was in the "Red Light District." We have never seen anything like what we saw last night! And the craziest thing was that it felt completely safe. Nobody said a word to us, but it was just crazy that everything that was going on was happening right on the street. We saw prostitutes, people cutting drugs, getting needles ready to shoot up. People with knives everywhere snorting drugs out of the cracks in the side walks! There were even rooms that you could go in to get a needle and do your drugs in there. We had actually walked a little bit too far down the road and saw more than we would have if we had seen our hostel the first time. It wasn't that bad near our hostel. This morning we slept in, because we are starting to feel snotty and kind of sick and felt like rest and slowing down would be in our best interest. Also, as close as the train station was, it was raining pretty hard and we didn't want to walk to the train station while it was pouring and get all of our stuff soaked. It finally let up, so we caught the train to Berlin!
