.atmosphere of Christmas

.the morning has welcomed us with a pleasant and warm weather. As we already have December and temperatures are still around 12!!! degrees, this was a great possibility to walk a bit into the city centre and the castle. There the concentration of people was greater than usual this week . All this due to the Old Christmas market, a very traditional event.

Lots of stalls everywhere, tons of people, all streets totally collapsing with the 'human traffic' :). People of all ages were enjoying the atmosphere, the small ones wanting the candies and other sweet stuff, the grown ones drinking alcoholic drinks of mysterious names ;). We tried it ourselves and tasted "Lumumba", a cacao drink with rum and cream, an interesting combination ;). Then suddenly the rain came and it was not fun anymore. A quick run for the bus saved our souls and we could relax in the warmth of our dormitory rooms and quietly enjoy the bought presents (hopefully they will conjure a smile on the faces of the loved ones...).
