Have you given your local German Christmas market a little too much love this season already? If you’re feeling that way, maybe you need to strike out across the border.  I recently stumbled across a nifty little Web site offering information on Christmas-related events in the Alsace. So, if you’re in the market for a market, or Marché de Noël, in neighboring France, pay a visit to http://noel.tourisme-alsace.com/en/events/. You’ll even find an event or two stretching past Christmas day, if you are one to suffer from post-holiday blues.

If Belgium or Luxembourg makes for an easier getaway for you, a good listing of the Christmas-related events in these countries can be found at:

If, on the other hand, the Netherlands is your nearest neighbor, a handy Web site would be: http://www.holland.com/uk/winterspecial/christmasmarkets/index.jsp.

So, to one and to all, a most “Schéi Chrëschtdeeg”, or some variation thereof.
