The Villa Kennedy

"Welcome to the Villa Kennedy... Mr Kennedy." Oh german humor. This week I went to frankfurt for 2 days and frankly didn't do much of interest. But the nicest hotel in the city is the Villa Kennedy and the staff's obvious glee (3 of them had ready-made jokes connecting my name with the hotel) was the most enjoyable part of my trip.

I also met with the European Central Bank which was very interesting from a work standpoint and even more interesting from an artistic perspective. I came across a posted notice that "the ECB choir will no longer rehearse in this room" (central banks have choirs?!?!?) And there is a 75 ft high statue of the euro sign outside (see below).
