Christmas Comes To Mons

It may not be the biggest or fanciest Christmas market around but because it is right in our backyard ----a.k.a. just a couple of blocks from our house--- in many respects it is the best one. Yes, even little old Mons has their own market, complete with lit tree, a skating rink and miniature toboggan run for the kids and chalets attesting to Belgian's love of beer and aperitifs.There is even a smattering of food and craft vendors.
