Right now you will find tons of Christmas markets full of people agressively fighting their way to stop and look at each stall, lots of desserts, and lots of hot drinks. For example, Gluhwein is a heated wine with spices. They have something here called Punsch, and like most European food/drinks, it has alcohol...which makes it well...gross. I think I'll stick to the kid punsch. The streets are decorated with chandeliers, ornate lights and advent calendars. It really is a fantastic place to be at Christmas time. We visited some markets Sunday, so here are a couple of photos of our visit to Schönbrunn and the Rathaus. In the next blog we'll tell you a little about Austrian traditions!
