Heiligabend

The title of the blog means Christmas Eve to us, but translated in German it means "Holy Night", and I wish all of you a very blessed one! TJ's bag finally came last night around 7:15 and then we flew out of the house and headed to Mannheim for the market's last night. It was so busy, and even if I had remembered my camera, there were too many people to even get a good picture. We had our last bit of Market Gluhwein for the season and some street food. It as nice, but a little chilly! The Mannheimer Market has two locations, one around the Wasserturm and another smaller more art filled one across from Engelhorn Sports. I like the smaller one better as the huts are filled with less trinkets and more art. The souvenir cups were even cute...porcelain boots with cute handles! Anyway it was fun, but now the market season is over. Sad but true!
In the next hour we will be heading to Salzburg to celebrate Christmas, and should have many pictures and stories to tell upon our return. Frohe Weihnachsten (Merry Christmas) everyone! And, Auf Wiedersehen!
