My last trip was a week in November/ December 2012 to Germany. I had always wanted to visit a German Weihnachtsmarkt (Christmas market), and at last I had the opportunity. Lübeck was our main destination, and we were surely not disappointed. The old city was beautifully decorated, it was quite magical. What was even more attrative to me, was the fantastic work of the best artists from Germany and Scandinavia. In short: A wonderful experience!
Love the lighting and thed jolly crowd. Terrific and very befitting words. Thanks for your comment on mine.
