German Countryside

This weekend we traveled to Frankfurt, Germany. There was a whole lot that was different about this place from both home and Rome. The first thing that I noticed though was the countryside. Since we landed at an airport that was an hour and a half bus trip from Frankfurt we got a great opportunity to see the German landscape. It was completely covered in green and yellow. There were vast fields of green and many were covered in what seemed to be dandelions. This kind of reminded me of upstate New York, but instead of large mountains there were slow rolling hills and valleys that covered the landscape. A beautiful country.
