The Weihnachtsmarkt (Christmas markets) are one of my favourite things about Christmas in Germany. Over the weekend I ventured to the one at Gendamenmarkt. Everything was sprinkled with snow from the fresh fall we had overnight and even though it was freezing (-10 Celcius) there were plenty of people about warming themselves up with Gluhwein (mulled wine) and apple cider and tasting all the yummy sweet treats that were on offer. I only stayed for a little while before my toes and fingers began to complain about the cold. The last photo will do your head-in it's so blurry, but I love the lights so despite being horribly out of focus it made it to the blog!

Ooh, Clare! What a treat for me in farflung, sunshiney Hobart. *Sigh*. I really miss Germany at this time of year. I have spent three Christmases there and each one was absolutely treasured. Keep enjoying yours, my friend! J x
I love Christmas Markets too...The spiced-hot-wine, yummy sweet and amazing little shops:) Great photos
Kisses
Looks so fun! And those Christmas ornaments look so pretty and unique.
Amazing photos - it's like being there without the cold
I love this German Weinacht markets. You can find all sorts of things there, also things that are so "just something".
I wish you enjoy the rest of this holliday spirit and have warm and peaceful Christmas.
Hugs.
Looks so festive!
I don't know what it is, but I've got something for neon signs at the moment, so the first pic is right up my alley!
Have a wonderful Christmas

I love Christmas markets. We have a German one on the Southbank in London, but that's the closest I've been to the real thing. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas! x
