Ready or not, here it comes, Christmas! And are you in for a treat. You are living smack
dab in the middle of some of the most beautiful, "Christmas-y" scenery in the world. And
the towns that have the most beautiful decorations surround you too. My pick for the best
place to be at Christmas would probably be Nürnberg, followed by Munich, and Stuttgart.
and Freiburg, or maybe Strasbourg, or Rheims (if you want to be sure they don't run out
of champagne).

The top 20 best Christmas (or Weihnachts Markt) towns in Germany would have to include:
Staufen-im-Breisgau (in the Black Forest), Rothenburg-ob-der-Tauber (about half-way
between Heidelberg and Nürnberg), Aachen, Cologne, Dresden, and the beautiful Christmas
markets of: Trier, Bernkastel-Kues, Cochem, Coblenz, Rüdesheim, Mainz, Worms, Speyer and
Ahrweiler.

And there are many more, all around you in the area, from Grindelwald in Switzerland, to
Innsbruck in Austria. And, although it's very little, Schladming in Aurstria goes on the list
because of their one-horse open sleighs (with real jingle-bells).

Please add your own favorites to this list.

My favorite place to be on christmas is in the south pacific region, in a hammock underneath some palms, with a cold beer and some kind of anti-asthma cigarettes, watching the young women play volleyball on the beach. ;) :p ;)

Well, you're right, of course, but if you happen to be in Germany, and you like all the Christmas lights, especially at night, and most especially when it's snowing...

But yeah, I've had some great vacations in the South Pacific. Hawaii's nice, and Tahiti is nice, and Bora Bora is nice, but the best ever was in
Moorea, at the Club Med, where the after dinner entertainment was a dozen girls, one more beautiful than the next, and ranging in height and age from the littlest up to the biggest, all topless, doing their hula-hula dance. Wow, vive la France, and vive la Polynesie Francaise!
