Munich Airport Center Christmas Market

Munich Airport Center Christmas Market

The Munich Airport’s (MUC) Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 are linked by a big outdoor covered square, which during December, is turned into a traditional Christmas Market.  “Christmas” in German is Weihnachts and market is markt. This adds an extra layer of festive fun to the already customer-friendly airport center.

Last night was Friday, and the market was filled!  Travelers, pulling suitcases, mixed with hundreds of locals out for a night the town.  A Christmas market brings everyone together for a common cause… bundle up, visit with friends, get some authentic German “carney” food, have a drink, and enjoy the festive evening.

There are many locations in Europe where I often say, “You can’t do this in Middleburg,” my little hometown in Florida.  Especially during the holiday season, we at home tend to get caught up in the hustle and bustle about shopping for relatives, attending Christmas parties, and going through the motions of the holiday, without slowing down an enjoying the experience.  

Yorkie beggingThe folks I encountered last night in the market were there to relax, slow down, shop, and enjoy visiting with friends.  Stopping for a snack, Charlotte and I were standing at an outdoor table with people we did not know, yet we all had a good experience there together.  There were a couple of young ladies at the next table with two Yorkie dogs tethered to the wrists.  The dogs loved it!  Perfect beggers and fierce to bark when challenged!

We are traveling around several Austria and Bavaria town this coming week, and I hope you will check in here often to see what’s going on in my world. 

Fröhliche Weihnachten!
