It was a short walk from where we were staying to the Christmas Market
The Archeological Showcase in Elisengarten
The Christmas Market was really busy! Not as bad as Leipzig, but not great. We were able to mask up and wander through, but it was the last night so most of the stands had everything on sale and people were going crazy for them! One thing there was a lot of was Aachener Printen cookies. They didn't have any signs that said they were vegan and the bags didn't have ingredients so I assumed they weren't for me (and the people were so busy I would have had to wait forever to ask)
A bit of a wander through town on the way back to our place
Once we got home I looked up the Aachener Printen to see if there were vegan ones available anywhere...and found the base is actually vegan! The only non-vegan ones were the milk or white chocolate-covered ones so we had to go out and get some to try! They were so good. Spiced cookies with anis flavor. Mmmm I wish I had some right now.
This was just a quick stop overnight again, but it was fun. I would definitely come back to Aachen to see what else there is to see in the city (and get more cookies!)
