The Vancouver Christmas Market

The Vancouver Christmas Market is back for the second year...
located on the front plaza of Queen Elizabeth Theatre.


We picked the perfect afternoon to head into the city...
and experience the German Christmas Village for ourselves.


From traditional European decor and entertainment...



to a wide variety of  foods and mulled ciders...
they had it.

We sampled this and that...
from Swiss raclette to German pasta.
And when we had seen it all...
and were chilled through and through...
we found a nice Canadian cup of coffee nearby to warm us up for the trip home.

Though the Christmas village was quite lovely...
the trip there and back by 'coach' was terrific as well.
We snacked on oranges...
chatted with friends old and new...
and sang Christmas carols in both English and German.
Thanks to our trusty driver, Frank...
for making the trip so delightful...
and relaxing!

Thanks to all of you who joined us on our Rendezvous outing today.
Merry Christmas!
