On Monday, the girls and I went shopping for the party that we were invited to that night with one of the companies that we work for here in Germany. They were doing a gift exchange so we needed to get some stuff to bring. I of course decided this was a wonderful opportunity to go back to the Christmas market in Heidelberg. It's so fun to go and grab lunch and wander around people watching and taking pictures. Here are some of the shots from the day.
The Germans take great pride in their doors and some of them are so beautiful.
These were some very yummy and huge cookies that are all over the markets. They are a very mild gingerbread type cookie, and are very beautiful.
And these little potato cakes are scrumptious. The are served with a creamy garlic sauce or with apple sauce. The little plate that they serve them on is edible. I actually saw people eating them. They Germans are militant about garbage. They want the least amount of rubbish as possible. So, they create edible plates. CRAZY!!
I guess I have a thing for windows as well. I think I should have been an architecture major in college.

You should have! I love the pictures!
Heidelberg is great! A wonderful place to hangout. I love your pics! Try the Bier Pretzel Restuarant by the church on the pedestrian zone. The food it good, priced well and has a great ambience. The Rumpsteak is wunderbar.
