Haidhausen Weihnachtsmarkt
Christmas Markets in Germany are something special, where you can enjoy a mulled wine, a tasty dessert, and a bit of craft-oriented shopping. Here are a few shots from this year!
The famous Glühwein hut, where you can get a mini Feuerzangenbowle (flaming punch made with 80% rum):
Beautiful glowing candles.
Delicious cakes, cookies, and desserts abound at the Christmas Markets!
This water bowl from Grünhorn was particularly cool. The German word, Wasserspringschale, literally means jumping water bowl. By rubbing the handles you get a variety of tones, and the vibrations make the water move in some interesting ways!
With a bit more effort, the water springs out of the bowl as if it were boiling madly, though it’s just room temperature.
If you’re looking for a cool decoration with endless relaxation and entertainment potential, check out a water spring bowl!
So far it’s a wonderful Christmas Market season. There are just a few days left, so for those in Germany who haven’t been to one yet, now is your chance!

What an interesting market. Love those lanterns! They’d look rather nice hanging in my trees outside!

Thanks for the plug, Wendy!
I’m hoping a few people will buy the book for Christmas, perhaps to give it as a gift.
Now in not-so-snowy Virginia for Christmas and somewhat missing the markets in Germany
…but it’s nice to be with family!
