PHOTO ESSAY: Holiday season in Austria and Germany

By Cynthia Bledsoe, special to Charleston Currents  | I recently returned from a week long Danube River Christmas Market river cruise, which began in Vienna and ended in Nuremberg, Germany. 

We traveled from Vienna to Melk and Linz, Austria and then into Germany, stopping in Passau, Regensburg and Nuremberg. Each town was decorated with different lights and festive Christmas decorations and the markets were filled to the brim with food, ornaments and lovingly hand-crafted goods.
