I bet MamaDuck is diving into those Christmas Markets - I remember her response to my posts on the Berlin markets last year!

MamaDuck is going out with her man tonight to see all these wonderful lights! We had an enjoyable afternoon amongst the Christmas crowds today, and bought ourselves a fluffy white halo (me), and a spiral Santa hat (him). So yes, we're hitting the Christmas markets - even if we haven't gone for reindeer hats and fluorescent nylon wigs, which apear to be the most popular fashion statement among Madrilenos.
