The weather was beautiful. Thank God, because it had rained for a week. However, because of some festivals in the city, the streets are very, very crowded. It wasn't easy for me to sketch things, while there was a lof of people walking around, pointing at me and giving comments. It was the first time, I sketched with someone at such crowded places.
Locations:
On the roof of the department store Kaufhof
By the Goethe's house
And now, the sketches:

Re: Frankfurt am Main, Germany [RESULTS]
I love your work! The comment about the cell phone made me smile. I have refused to buy one, because I don't want to be kept at the end of a leash.
Re: Frankfurt am Main, Germany [RESULTS]
-- even though you might have felt in the middle of nowhere at least everyone pointed at you
Thanks for the explicit comments on everything and the colourful skecthes, Silent Snail!

Re: Frankfurt am Main, Germany [RESULTS]
Here I am, at the end of my holydays, ready to post my results!
This is just to introduce my day: I lost my flight early in the morning, and I seriously risked to miss the appointment with Thao Mai...luckily me and my friend have been able to catch a train, and I could meet her!
The journey from Berlin to Frankfurt on the DB train has been long, and there I've started my 28th sketchrcawl (hoping this is not OffTopic!):
* The stations where we stopped with the direct train
*A man sitting right in front of me
* Another couple
*A woman who was eating an icecream
Then, finally, in Frankfurt!
* Commerzbank skyscraper
* A woman on the top of the shopping center where we were
* Another view from Galeria's rooftop (Katharinenkirche, not Paulkirche! Sorry!)
* Goethe's house!
Tschuess Thao Mai! Danke schoen!
PS: this is an ugly sketchbook...but I've bought it in emergency. I've finished my good one, and I haven't been able to find a fine art's shop in Berlin...so I took the first thing which seemed like a sketchbook! Bad paper...and the rows! Awww!

Wonderful sketches on 'ugly' sketchbook! Especially Goethe's House...which I wanted to visit on trip to Germany but couldn't for short of time last April.

Re: Frankfurt am Main, Germany [RESULTS]
Your sketches, especially the one of Goethe's house, are wonderful despite bad paper of the notebook.
It was very fun to sketch with you. Too bad that we didn't have much time. If you next time go to Germany, contact me.

Cool top deck sketching. I especially love people, door way, and clock tower sketches. Great job to all.

I really enjoyed all of your sketches
The images of the buildings and people are beautiful. I like coloring as well.
