Merry Christmas to everyone. Just returned back to Quissac after a ten day road trip during which we visited the Essential European Christmas markets (Freiborg, Strasbourg, Mulhouse) enjoyed great German food, took in the Baden thermal baths, and celebrated Christmas with family in Holland. Here are some photos and video for you to enjoy.
All the best in the New Year!!!
The food.........

Freiburg night scene.

 |
| Oh, and the Beer... |
 |
Snowball fight in Munsterplatz, Freibourg.
|
 |
| Petite France. |
Chestnuts roasting, vats of hot spiced wine, crepes being cooked ...... all the scents of a Christmas Market.
Snitzel, bratwurst........
 |
| Mulhouse Cathedral |
 |
| Kali and Blaire on a two story Ferris wheel. |
 |
| Lots of color along with the food and snow to get into the Christmas spirit. |
 |
| Like looking at the rising sun through a stained-glass window in a church.... |
 |
| The German cuisine is stellar. Wild boar with a red wine sauce and a locally produced red wine....oh, and that's a slab of Krauten butter on top. It doesn't get any better. I'll go for a run in the morning... I promise. |
Wow you guys. What a fantastic experience! Looks amazing - so much fun stuff to see and do! Shawna is still in Vienna and raved about all the food and beautiful things at the Christmas markets there. Can't imagine how beautiful it is! Hope you had a fantastic Christmas!
