Planetskier: Rats... Frankfurt

I had been consuming the food at the Lufthansa Business Lounge in Frankfurt (T1) for hours while on a layover from my flights from North Macedonia to Finland. Then I saw it. And now running back. Grabbed my phone, but it was too quick. Definitely a mouse, but I think too big for that actually. I'm semi-confident it was a rat.

Ewww....

Of course I cannot be sure what I saw. I reported the sighting to the staff, they said they have a problem with mice in Frankfurt. Still... I can't be sure, but what I thought I saw was larger than a mice.

In any case, wish them well in an effort to clean the rodents out of the lounge. I understand that it can be a major challenge in an old, massive airport building.
