My skeletonians left early for Austria and my bobsledders were heading to Herzogenaurach for some more shopping after the 4-man race. That gave me the opportunity to spent another day in Nuernberg with M.&R.
After all these years I made it to the famous Nuremberg Christmas market again: the smell of Bratwurst,Lebkuchen (kind of gingerbread) and Gluehwein, the Christmas decorations, even the cheesy Christmas music...That is the Christmas spirit!
We spent a beautiful early evening at the market and then met another friend at one of the little restaurants with good German food and beer from one of 300 micro breweries in the area.That is what this region is about: good food and good beer!
...oh, and before I forget: there was another World Cup race, too: the best skeletonian finished 8th, the bob sleigh girls were ok and the rest does not need mentioning. There will be another race next weekend.....
