So quick stop in Frankfurt didn't realise hotel was in Red Light district. So there's that 🤣🤣
TravelerThis reminds me of a time I booked a hotel for Jon without realising it was in the Red Light district of Madrid! lol (Enjoying the posts)
TravelerOh, I just re-read that… YOU booked Jon a RLD hotel? I bet he thought it was Christmas! 😂❤️
TravelerNo he didn't as neither he nor I really knew Madrid. Actually it was around Christmas when it happened. He just decided to go to a nightclub which was near the rail station where he needed to grab a train in the morning to Valencia where I was and sat and drank with the lighting tech and DJ. I know because he phoned me and told me what had happened and where he was and the guys spoke with me.
