VIRTUAL TRIP TO - Liege Christmas Market This Friday all aboard at 11 am for travel ON EUROSTAR

FIBRO HIBERNATION CLUB IS IN FULL SWING ALL WELCOME

The Christmas Markets in Belgium are very popular and offer all kinds of Christmas goodies and the festive season will again be celebrated with colourful Christmas trees. They exude a fantastic atmosphere and offer great shopping opportunities. There are a few notable Belgian Christmas Markets particularly Brussels Winter Wonderland and the Bruges Christmas Market and also a relatively new market in Ypres which is now in its third year.

These Belgian Xmas markets in or near to Brussels benefit from the rapid Eurostar service.

Xmas markets in Belgium have much to offer the visitor in terms of the Belgian culture and being relatively close to the UK is easy to travel to.

LIEGE CHRISTMAS MARKET

The “Village de Noël de Liège” (Christmas Village) has become one of Belgiums' most famous Chrismas Markets in Belgium, with wooden chalets offering gastronomic specialities, handicrafts and souvenirs

LIEGE CHRISTMAS VILLAGE: 29 Nov–30 Dec 2013 Place St Lambert & Place du Marché.

During 4 weeks, 200 hundred wooden chalets will offer various products including gastronomic specialities, handicrafts and souvenirs.

I went to Exeter today with a friend and in the surrounds of the Cathedral they've set up a Christmas market, all in little wooden sheds. Apparently they did it last year but it was spoilt by the wet weather, they've taken more in this first week than they did in the whole three weeks last year. Lots of lovely lovely things to buy, had I had lots of pennies I would have come back laden.......ah well.....one can but dream !!

Okay guys the Eurostar is wicked you arrive on the platform and have to find your seats get settled quickly because then the magic begins you are whisked through England and down to the tunnel the train goes straight through so for twenty minutes the out side goes dark then whoosh you are in France heading for Belgium. The train rarely moves about it is silent and smooth you will enjoy it immensely are we all dressing up ? Goody can I wear a clown costume how wonderful xgins

[Hidden in reply to Ginsing]

Yeah I know all that Gins I just don't like the idea of getting stuck under the sea

Fancy dress is optional so if you'd like to be a clown you can ehheeheheh!
