The week before Christmas marks the end of the Christmas market season. There are a few stragglers throughout Europe but I'm content with what we accomplished. In fact we visited all the ones on my 'to do' list with the exception of Rothenburg. The weather was just too crazy to drive that far but (hopefully) next year we'll make it. We did revisit our local Christmas market in downtown Stuttgart on Wednesday to get our last taste of Gluhwein and Christmas market goodness for the year.
Until next year...
Happy, happy Christmas, that can win us back to the delusions of our childish days; that can recall to the old man the pleasures of his youth; that can transport the sailor and the traveller, thousands of miles away, back to his own fire-side and his quiet home! ~Charles Dickens, The Pickwick Papers, 1836
