I love Europe at this time of year. The lights, the outdoor Christmas Markets, the smell of Glühwein in the air. Zurich, already a beautiful city becomes even more enchanting. I could not help snap photo after photo as I made my way through the city. Unfortunately my iPhone 4S takes pictures that are not all that great, so please use your imagination a little with each one as in person, each sight is a beautiful one.

Walking through the Niedordorf in Zurich old town never gets old for me. I love it, and at Christmas it is even more lovely. (The men on the right had to sneak into my photo to see why I was taking the picture. Funny.) |

One of my French friends(so you know it is going to be to a lovely find) introduced me to this little gem of a place also in the Niederdorf. At Schober you can still sit outside on their terrace and sip delicious hot chocolate on a sheepskin covered chair while wrapped in a bright red blanket. The lights add a magical touch.

Wowee this is a blurry one. Right at Stadelhofen train station is this festive little Glühwein stand which also makes for a great meeting spot.

The lovely trees all lit up outside Terrace at Bellevue. |

The beautiful tree and windows done each year by Credit Swiss at ParadePlatz. It makes the dark evenings heading home from work a lot more bearable. |

The view of the Conelli Circus from across the Limmat. |

Some quick snaps of last weeks Polyball. Hosted by ETH, the event covered 8 floors with different bands. A formal even, it was a sea of gowns and black ties. |
