Munich preparing for Winter and X-…

„Climate shock“ would be a moderate expression. When the doors of the plane opened this morning in Frankfurt, I though I would freeze. But nothing to complain, it’s end of November in Germany and 5 degrees Centigrade is absolutely normal.

However, what was funny to see that Germany is preparing not only for the upcoming winter, but also for the X-Mas season. The first wave of decoration has hit the stores in full swing. Likewise, I’d like to share this picture from the afternoon on the Stachus in the heart of Munich where workers are about to finalize an ice-skating area.

What I am really looking forward to is the opening of the famous “Christkindlmarkt” with fried sausages and “Glühwein” (hot whine) in around 10 days.

    OHHHH I love Germany at Christmas time! I am planning to drive over to Koeln to go to Weihnachtmarkt. I just love the atmosphere! So festive!
    My first Weihnachtmarkt was in Guetersloh (horrible)!
