Happy Holidays from Ms. Q!
Karacsonyi Vasar
Consider this Christmas Markets Take 2, Hungarian style.
What makes Christmas markets different in Hungary than they are in Austria, you ask?
Go ahead. I'll wait.
Well, I'm glad you asked, because you'll be delighted to know there is no difference beyond geography.
This photo was snapped at Sopron's little version in Fő Tér.
Folk music is played live by local bands, attendees can enjoy some lángos or forralt bor, and local artisans sell their handmade wares.
It's delightful, and all the more so for being close enough for a midday stroll in between class periods at BDEG.

Did you also pick up a rum punch in between classes?
Sadly, no. I was a good little Lutheran missionary and kept my drinking to after work hours.
Unlike some of those crazy folk in Tisovec, right?
I'm fairly certain we kept our drinking to after-work hours; the problem was with the company we kept.
PS-I don't get notified when you respond to my comments (and I usually forget that I made any comment at all), so that's why I'm replying to this several days late.
I hear ya cluckin' big chicken. I get a handy notification of comments when I log into Blogger, otherwise I, too, am oblivious.
