Nutcracker:
It is again that time of the year, autumn, with the crunch of dry leaves under my foot, gives me an indication that winter is approaching soon. And, with the arrival of winter starts the festive season. Colorful electric light clad streets, Christmas tree, family dinners, and exchange of gifts. Streets and trees are also clad with fresh white snow, backyards are displaying the beauty of snowman, it seems heavenly! During Christmas time markets are beautifully decorated and flooded with gift options. One particular item that really amused me was 'Nutcracker'. It is something which is found only Christmas time in the stores. I was first introduced to this amusing toy or doll in Canada. And, during Christmas, Christmas- themed shows are also put up for the family fun. One of the classics in this theme is 'The story of Nutcracker'.
Fiddler on the roof:
Marcel the Moose: A story of a deer named Marcel.
Another thing that I recently discovered while my stay in the Christmas dominated countries is that kids leave milk and cookies for the Santa on Christmas eve, indicating the message of sharing and caring with others.
Christmas Tree: It is not a pine tree.
Lighting:
Strasbourg: One of the oldest Christmas Market in Europe.
