We walked down to the market several days after work to look around and have some gluwien (hot, mulled wine- YUM!), which always seemed to hit the spot. Or, we would go after dinner for dessert or just a frigid evening walk to look at the lights.
Living in the city in the winter was fantastic for us. We both wanted to live in the city but I don't think either of us realized that it meant we could walk just two minutes to a party every evening. There were lights at every turn. Every store and restaurant was decorated or over-decorated. When it snowed, which was often, it was like a winter wonderland. It was the perfect place for us to spend our first winter in Germany.
We didn't have a Christmas tree since we were not planning to be home for Christmas so we claimed the city tree as our own...
