Colmar

Colmar is south of Strasbourg and we went there for somewhere to go. The old town was something of a picture as you can see below.
Colmar was preparing for Christmas. Market stalls and rides were being set up everywhere, but since this was November still, it was all yet to open.
Pictures (and sometimes captions) speak for themselves.

The huge church - The patterned roof is typical

The river runs noisily below the street level

Decorated stalls are everywhere

The Little Venice area

A ski and sled log cabin - appears to be created new for the season.

The self-named "Romantic" restaurant

Setting up. This ride is a reindeer monorail....

Old and beautiful house and roof

This last shot was when it was almost dark, but it had to be tried. It really was this colour.
We will be back.
