Christ Kindle Markt (Crist Child Market)

Munchen (Munich) had the best I had seen in the square below the Glokenspiel. now on the ground, roasting of nuts and all sorts of goodies filled the air from all the small booths. Most memorable were the Christmas ornaments hand-made from straw.

Correction - Christkindlemarkt.

My mother was born in Bad Tolz in 1932. Married my father in Oberamagau in 1950. Sister was born in Frankfurt. After a stint at Ft. Bliss (where I was hatched) and two tours of Korea, we went back to Germany. Stuttgart, Kelley barracks.

And the mulled wine - the Germans do darned good mulled wine... Wish I could still remember what they called it!
