Stuttgarter Weihnnachtsmarkt

Over the weekend we went to visit the Weihnnachtsmarkt in Stuttgart. It is one of the largest Christmas markets in Europe and is only a couple of hours away. The weather was quite chilly, but beautiful and sunny.

Doc and I enjoyed walking through the market and looking at what the vendors were selling and how each of the stands was decorated. The smells of all of the food got to us, and we ate some sausages and sweets and drank some Glühwein (mulled wine). I even saw one of my coworkers at the market!!








This stand had a talking moose!
