Christmas Adventures: Dortmund

On the way to our next stop we stopped in Dortmund to spy on the world's largest Christmas tree! This was very big, but made up of a lot of smaller trees which was interesting. 

The market was pretty nice

And we found food for lunch! Vegan grunkohl (this had a strong flavor and was so good! I had just been thinking I wish I could find a vegan version and then here we did!) and Stielmus (turnip greens) which we have never had and was super tasty as well. It was a lighter flavor, but yum! 







There were lots of fun light displays so it is probably even nicer after dark













Some of the light displays even had sound - this one had the sound of a crackling fire

Some fried brussel sprouts for a snack

And a cinnamon sugar chimney treat!

Dortmund was a great stop! They had so many treats for us and it was a really nice wander. We got super lucky with the weather as well. It was pouring when we went into the parking garage to park, but by the time we got outside again it wasn't raining. Then it started sprinkling when we were almost back to the car, and was pouring once we drove out! So perfect timing on our part! I would definitely stop by here again for the market if we were in the area.
