weihnachtsmarkt am spittelberg

last night kev and i went to the christmas market at spittelberg (called weihnachtsmarkt am spittelberg) with an ex-colleague of kev's (who is currently working at kev's office on a project).

we wandered along the streets and stopped to drink a few mugs of schilcher glühwein. we had no idea what it was but having just googled it... schilcher is a type of róse wine produced solely in the austrian region of western styria (now i know!). it tasted great anyway and the atmosphere amongst the little streets, stalls and glühwein stands was lovely! the markets are certainly much more pretty at night.
