My mom has been wanting to see the Christmas markets in Europe for years so she came over with Don this Thanksgiving to experience them. We had the pleasure of taking them to a few different markets and Kloster Eberbach for a quick tour and wine tasting.
First stop was the Wiesbaden Sternschnuppenmarkt. We walked down to the market the day they arrived and got some Glühwein and potato pancakes.
The next day (Thanksgiving) we drove to Nürnberg. The Christmas market didn’t start until Saturday so we just walked around the city and grabbed a nice German meal for our Thanksgiving dinner.
After that we headed to Prague for a few days to enjoy their market and try their local specialties.
On the way home we stopped in Nürnberg to visit the market, try its world famous gingerbread, and pick up some last minute gifts.
It was a short trip, but definitely nice to be able to spend Thanksgiving with family.
