I am definitely gonna try mulled wine next time, probably gonna visit more markets this year. I am fully indulging myself in holiday spirit no matter whether I am sick or not 😀. Started carrying my medicines so that I could take them anytime whenever needed. I was scared of tasting mulled wine because I was not in NL and scared of getting drunk. 🤣
I sometimes stand behind the crowd following the tour guides if I need to find something out. Never pay for it, though.
Darn, definitely gonna do that next time. Guides know a lot about the city, so those who take a private tour guide, basically walk around. I am going to follow your trick.
Handicrafts decors are expensive now but I saw some really good quality and unique decors. Commercial decors are not so good. I don't celebrate Christmas but I had a lot of decors of winter village when I was in Ukraine. I would have bought some decors from Germany if I had a place to decorate...
