I couldn't get enough of Christmas this year. So, following our trip to Cologne I went on a girls trip to Berlin, Germany to experience more of the Christmas markets. Fortunately, Tom had a weekend full of work holiday parties...so it was the perfect time for me to slip away. A group of six of us hopped on the train for the easy trip to Berlin. Since we had all been there before we weren't concerned with seeing the sites...we had one goal and one goal only....hitting up as many of the 60 Christmas markets in Berlin as possible. We managed to get to quite a few and had a blast wondering around and indulging in gluwein and hot cocoa with Baileys. It was also super fun to see all Berlin all decorated in Christmas decor for the holidays! We had so much fun shopping, relaxing and hanging out and are looking to plan our next girls weekend soon!
