DECEMBER 2015

Proof not in the pudding, but in the photograph, of the return to fine weather after the BOFs have left us.
Clear blue skies, and not a breath of wind.

Outside(18C) and inside temperatures (30C).

Now it begins to feel like Christmas.
German 'type' wooden huts selling food,drink and craft items.





















Saint Nicholas has arrived!
The fun fair casts its reflections on the canal water.
'Someone' dropped the water level in the canal and forgot to tell us that they were going to do so!

So it's a bit difficult to get on/off the boat!

Today we went for a Christmas Chinese buffet lunch, before others head off to the UK.

So the last members of our family to visit before Christmas have been and gone, and we're feeling quite relaxed, if a little alone, as the other boats here are empty.

Andy looked quite 'green' after his descent on the Big Dipper!

 It didnt put him off having a go on the Segway, and he soon got the hang of it!
Marina on the other hand kept trying to go too fast!






Then she decided to go for something with a little more bounce.

The following evening we were tempted up onto the plazza by the sound of drums.
Love the illuminated drums!















The Christmas market had lots to offer, all you could wish for to eat, drink, gifts and fun for the children.
