Since a few years there are Christmas markets a little everywhere in Belgium and not only in Brussels. Waterloo joined in too. At the very beginning it was just a small little market in a huge tent in front of the city hall. But this year it was different. It had become a nice market with about 30 chalets.
At one of the two entrances
Here you can eat snails
and of course drink hot or normal wine
The house of the Waterloo youth
beautiful decoration
This corner was for drinking mostly Champagne
An old carousel for the kids
Even the Television
Enough to eat and to drink and warm you up at this flame
Jelly, jam and other goodies
Iceskating
Self knitted pullovers, cardigans and hats for kids
Even Buddha was there to bring us serenity
or another mean to get cheerful
Many different chalets
and people having fun
I haven't seen the real father Christmas but this one waved me good-bye
Glad you made it home safely - looks a beautiful and peaceful market and very poignant after the news in Berlin today. Wren x
ReplyDeleteHow lovely and festive!
ReplyDeleteThey are normally such fun to visit but after the tragic events in Berlin, well....
ReplyDeleteNice Christmas market. I really like the stalls that sell crafts.
ReplyDeleteChampagne at a Christmas Market is very extravagant. I have been away in Ljubljànà and am trying to catch up with reading blogs. I will post about my latest travel experience soon.
