The Maasticht Christmas Market opened today at the Vrijthof Square; despite a steady drizzle the town was out for the colorful opening.
Everything was in it’s familiar place: the faux-garden for hot spiced wine, the shop filled with holiday trimmings, the german sausage stand, the SkyWheel. There were new collectable cups (and I did, above), a couple of new fiber optic decorations (below, left), but most was comfortable and familiar. Such is the stuff of tradition.
