Whee! We had five minutes of snowing yesterday!

The mailman finally brought the copy of 'Swift and Bold, the 60th Rifles during the Peninsular War' I ordered this summer... one has to admire life's timing.

Weihnachtsmarkt and Schloss Heidelberg in the background




Heiliggeistkirche


with historic market stalls... notice the Antiquariat!

Pyramide!

I love German Christmas markets! :) They always look so beautiful, and though I have never been to one, I have always wanted to go.
