(Obscure SF reference: "...and came down" is the opening sentence of a famous science fiction story.) We came down at Frankfurt ahead of schedule. We followed signs to the railway station along a meandering route up and down and around, and reached the platform with two hours to spare! So we checked with the Deutsche-Bahn office to see if we could leave sooner than 12:11, but oops, sorry, you got your tickets at a special low rate. To take an earlier train will cost an additional €250. Ach du lieber. So we are sitting on the platform using up a T-mobile 60-minute hotspot purchase...
and admiring the smoothness with which the high-speed trains come and go.
