Basler Weinachte Maerkte 2

Back to the December visit to the Basler Weinachte Maerkte ...

After fortifying ourselves with some hot spicy Glühwein, Friend J, who had finished her business in Basel, and I were ready to visit the market stalls and shops in earnest.

There were sparkling delights

and jewelry

and handmade ornaments, as well as

handmade decorations from German-speaking areas.

There were stalls selling seasonal hats and

others selling seasonal posters.

The only thing that was missing was snow.

But we had a wonderful time all the same and we were happy to visit at a time when the market was not too crowded.

It was a wonderful visit and I hope to do it again sometime.  But I believe that I would also like to visit Basel in more depth.   Another day, hopefully, perhaps in the spring!
