Oh the BEST part about being here in December is (no, not the cold) the Christmas Markets! I have gone to a total of five. They're are definitely similarities in them all, but the best one was Nurnberg. It is the oldest and largest in Germanty (or so they tell me). It is filled with mini shops that sell oranments, gloves, candles, kitchen tools etc etc. And of course, Food! (my fav!) The big stands are the bratwurst (duh!), chocolate covered fruit, cookies!, nuts, dried fruits and gluhwein (pronounced glue-vine). I of course was addicted to to the chocolate covered fruit ;) Everything is so fresh and it smells amazing. They definitely get crowded as the day gets later, but it just really brings a warming sense of the holidays.
Above are some pics of the some of the Christmas Markets I went to.
