Easter Market in Sankt Wendel

I wrote about the Easter Market yesterday, which is the spring version of the wonderful and amazing Weihnachtsmarkts (Christmas Markets). No Gluhwein, but lucky for us plenty of sunshine!

The Germans like to hang Easter eggs on trees - and the ones on this bush are all hand painted by a local artist (I think).


Since I was carrying the kids' camera, they got to take turns taking some photos. Here Leah took a photo of me and Ian.


They had a nifty kinderplatz (kids play area), and both Ian and Leah took turns with the bow and arrow.


We had to practically drag Ian out of there - he had so much fun shooting at the dragon target!


St. Wendel is a pretty cool town. We had a great time there for the Weihnachtsmarkt a couple of years ago, and this Easter Market didn't disappoint this year. This is just an overhead view of the crowds looking up one of the streets where the market was being held.


Have a wonderful day everybody!

Tschuss,

Marc
