April, 2012: Singapore to Nigeria, via Frankfurt


The last time I transited in Frankfurt, it was for a SIN to USA trip.
That time, it was the tail end of winter and there were still snow on the pavement outside the airport. This round, it is April, but a morning shower brought the mercury down quite a bit. So it was pleasantly chilly outside the airport.

Took a short train ride from the Frankfurt airport to the Frankfurt am Main station (Main being the river that runs through the city.) It was a Easter Monday and the train station was quite quiet for a city of Frankfurt's size.


Not far from the station is the red light district. It was equally quiet. Probably too early for the action to start.


Before long, my 1.5 hours in the city was up and I double back to the airport. As the bird landed in Lagos airport, it was once more into the fray: another few weeks of work in Nigeria.
