Christmas market in Basel
I arrived in Basel yesterday morning and was surprised by all the snow at the airport and throughout the city. I was told it was snowing heavily on Sunday! Thus, I decided to visit the christmas market in the evening. Although it was rather cold (-8 C) the market itself was wonderful. Since this has already become a kind of tradition, I enjoyed a Klöpfer (a special kind of sausage). The booth were fabulous and have somewhat changed over the years (which cannot be said about all the christmas markets). It was also very nice, that the booth were arranged in a more dungeon-like fashion. This way, the wind was not able to penetrate the spot that much. In addition, it makes discovering new things far more enjoyable.
In a lucky moment I was even able to find another christmas present which is really beautiful. Although I can't tell you what it is...
