Regensburg Christmas Market

If I don't make my way to the gym, I get fairly bored - quickly. So on Sunday, since I'm now forcing myself to take at least one day off from the gym per week, I needed a plan to keep myself from going stir crazy. As a result, Maddie and I jumped in the car and drove 1 1/2 hours to Regensburg to see another Christmas Market.

The drive was nice as I never get to listen to CDs in the car. So I jammed out to Kylie, Girls Aloud, Britney and my new favorite, Shayne Ward. Besides that, I enjoyed a cheeseburger, small fry, triple chocolate chip cookie and Coke Light from McDonald's - it was Fat Girl Sunday after all.

The Regensburg Christmas market was similar to others we've seen over the past few weeks (overcrowded alleyways filled with locals drinking Gluewein). What was a standout, however, was Regensburg itself. The 2000 year-old city was left intact from Allied air raids in WWII so the medieval city center is quite impressive. Unfortunately, many of the quaint shops were closed. But this unfortunate result of us going on a Sunday only means Maddie and I will return with Chris in the near future - possibly on our way to Nurnberg next Sunday for what will be our last Christmas market before the holidays.
