Lots of snow meant not too much sightseeing, but we did make it sledding in the front yard and at a hill on base. We all had a great time - huge smiles from everyone.
We made it to Christmas markets in Luxembourg and Trier, Germany. I loved walking around the little stalls and looking at the decorations and crafts and sampling some German foods. We had planned to do a few other town markets as well but my flight delay pushed us too close to Christmas to make any others since they stop running on the 23rd of December.
We spent two days at Ramstein AFB and shopped at the BX, ate at the American food restaurants, and swam in the indoor pool complex. It was a nice break and the kids really enjoyed it. Its like an entire indoor mini-America.
Christmas eve and day was filled with food and presents and the excitement of it all.
And New Year's Eve we watched local fireworks and set off a few in the back yard. The kids had party poppers and everyone made it until midnight.
Happy New Year
Out with 2010 and in with 2011
