Christmas 2006 was a different experience for us as can be expected when living in a different country. However, we were not even in Romania, but traveled to Germany to visit friends from Phoenix, Don and Jennifer. It was a joy to see and spend time with them during Christmas.
We visited Christmas markets with so many beautiful things, crafts, and foods, all on display for the senses to take in.

We did some sight seeing along the Rhine River with its numerous castles and grape vineyards.
Christmas meal was at Don’s parent’s home and was a traditional one with turkey and all the trimmings. On the 25th and 26th businesses were closed, and we all played board games and ate great German food. It was different being away from our family at Christmas. Sending cards/e-cards and some on-line ordering was handy, but we missed being there in person.
The Kehren family opened their home up to us and had a few surprises. Jen was able to pack in her luggage a few gifts from family back in the states. Steve especially liked his socks and comfy long underwear.
Sharing so many new sights and experiences made wonderful memories to cherish. Hope you enjoyed some of the pictures.
