Re: PLEASE REPLY! LEAVING IN 2 DAYS... Posted: Tue September 2, 2003 08:18 AM UTC
HI! Barbie in Heidelberg here. I am an American (non military) living here for the past 15 months (and loving it!). I visit Mannheim quite frequently (only 18 k from here) and know the area pretty well. I found a great map site of Mannheim at this address. http://www.hot-maps.de/europe/germany/baden_wuerttemberg/mannheim/homeen.html I hope you will be able to 'cut and paste' this long URL. The spelling of the street you are looking for is: Frölichstraße . Paste that into the search box and you will see the location come up. When you get to Mannheim (if by train) you should go from the train station (Bahnhof) straight out to the center of town at the Wasserturm (water tower) That is a very lovely park area. From there you would contiune going in that direction (I believe it is northeast, by direction) towards the Neckar River. Once over the river you would be in Neckarstaadt. That is the area of town that Frölichstraße is located. Let me know if I can be of any more assistance for travel in and around Mannheim. When will you be there and how long? As for getting a wurst here and bringing it back? Do NOT try it! They are very strict about meat products coming into the States. You will loose your wurst and get a big fine! Take it from me, the wursts you can get from am importer there in the States are just as good as here. I have eaten all of the varieties and a wurst is a wurst! Hope I have helped you.
