Aachen

My first time in Germany!  Did a day trip with hosts Jim, Jan, Hope, and Luci (and yes, two Lucy/is has been very tricky).  Drove through Belgium, the Netherlands, and ended in Germany all within 90 minutes.  We went to the Christmas Market at Aachen.  Ate all kinds of things I would characterize as "fair food", but for high culture also visited the Cathedral with Charlemagne's Tomb.

Dad - they take gingerbread very, very seriously here.  You'd love it.
