London/Wales will bookend those two weeks. Plenty to see there, even if we miss out on the German experience. Actual Christmas will be in Paris, and New Year’s Eve will be in Norway.

There's something extraordinary about the country's December markets (Weihnachtsmarkts, I think they're spelt) - mulled wine and roast chestnuts, and great atmosphere.

Mainly I am just desperate for a holiday that doesn't involve driving around country NSW visiting rellies, and Europe in winter seems as far removed from that as one can get.

It is the quintessential word for the season though, so I stole it immediately. TimT, I thoroughly enjoy stomping around in real cold. The last time I lived in the UK my neighbours couldn't get over "how well she copes with it". Growing up a bushwalker means I understand about woolly socks, thermals,layering and the supreme importance of stout waterproof boots.

Awesome! Best time, the depths of winter! Tell me if you see the Snow Queen! I'm going to be visiting the US, hopefully in February. Travel blogging is definitely on my itinerary too!
