What a difference a month makes

Sonntag, 3.12.06

So soon it is now the last month of the year. The run up to Christmas now in full swing. Definitely an improvement from November. Just went to the xmas markets in the centre of town. It was very busy and I had no hands to take any photos as I was holding onto a nice warm glass of Glühwein [mulled wine]. No doubt I will be back there soon, there are food stores a plenty.

I went to my first Flohmarkt [Flea Market] yesterday and got myself some quite authentic different Kölsch branded wooden handled bottle openers for 1,40€. Jen and Hamish haggled some bargains by getting a bike for 15€ and a standing fan for 1€! The fan is for a project, and not weather! On my way home, I gave some guy directions practising my German; hope he got there in the end. Although, whether I did it in German or not may not have affected the quality of my direction giving!
