And to have seen it for yourself will, we know, give added meaning to all that you write.<br /><br />This is another tempting glimpse into a country in which, as we may have mentioned previously, we have spent too little time. Sadly, in our view, Christmas markets are now somewhat over done and are apt to appear all over Europe looking, we feel, much the same everywhere.
