Kochbrunnen, Wiesbaden
Although the water of this source does not quite reach boiling temperature (”kochen” = to boil), it’s still steaming hot.
The hot sources have been a major tourist attraction for Wiesbaden ever since the time of the Romans.

Mobile Gallery
I was quite surprised by the image quality I saw in my Nokia smartphone. Not quite as good as a big photo on a big screen of course, but much better than I would have thought. So. I'm now trying out a special gallery for use with a cell phone on my site: http://www.travelphoto.net/m/ One word of caution: the pictures there are meant for devices with 320*240 pixle displays, I don't have a real way to check smaller sizes anyway. Of course, all this is quite experimental at the moment - please tell me how you like it and what (if any) bugs you ...

We left Wiesbaden in 1959 to immigrate to Canada. My mother used to make me drink that brew. I hated it. Thanks for the pic, I was always wondering if that drink was still available. Faulbrunnen tasted worse. I can’t remember where it was located.-K
