Thanks for these sets.  Some of my best memories are from Christmas time in
Germany in my teen years.  I lived first in Wetzlar and then in Frankfurt.
Frankfurt, of course has changed and built up into a quite modern city, but
not so much that I can't find my way around still.  Nice shots of "home."

I never went to the Market in Mainz, but I'll never forget the
Christkindlesmarkt in Nuremburg.  It was quite exotic to me, a youngster
from Louisiana, the sights and smells.   A really crisp cold day still makes
me think of Brats grilling on charcoal. ;-)
