Christmas Markets



Leading up to Christmas here it is very easy to stay inside warm rather than venture out to the cold and dark.  Outside is very pretty with snow everywhere but the minus 5 degrees makes it challenging.  But one thing beckons - the Christmas Markets.  Friday when school finished we caught the train into Munich and had some gluhwein and a walk around.  Deb and I looked at the different stalls full of Christmas decorations and Malcolm when up the tower of the town hall to get a better view over the markets. After wandering around these for a little while we headed to the Medieval Markets where you can buy all your bows, arrows, crystals, armour and so on.  The thing we like best about these markets is that they are in a nice square and the food!  Lots of woodfired ovens and we had some great hot smoked food there as well as a little more gluhwein.
