we are in our new apartment, which is fantastic, except we still don't have any furniture.
this week we went to a weinnachtsmarkt with katja, from whom we rented our first apartment.
they have open markets in germany at christmas time where people gather to eat wurst and cooked rotkohl (red cabbage) or just plain cooked kohl (cabbage) and to drink gluehwein, which is a le delicious sort of mulled wine type thing. christmas markets have lots of stands where people sell decorations and seasonal foods and also handmade crafts and that sort of thing. overall, it is really neat.
everything is really decorated for christmas here, which is neat- there are stars and lights and excellent sledding things built all around town, and lots of parties and xmas wishes.
i am definately sad about missing my awesome family at christmas, but it will be interesting to see how german christmas works!
xoxo all!
