I love city breaks. Whilst I look forward to enjoying a summer holiday if I am lucky enough, I sometimes think I love mini breaks the most, especially in Winter. I have to say I think this is the first official WINTER trip I have taken, I have visited Rome during December but found myself strangely taking off my jacket and wandering around in a thin top as the weather was unexpectedly warm! This was not the case when I visited Berlin this weekend though, although I had been checking the weather, nothing could prepare me for how cold it was! I'm not actually a wimp when it comes to the cold as I LOVE getting wrapped up and wearing as many layers as possible, however it was bitterly windy indeed. One of the best things about the trip was getting to see family who I don't get to see very often, and also to experience the Christmas markets. Berlin is definitely the place to go if you want to get into the festive spirit, there is no shortage of lights, markets and amazing scents of food and mulled wine that follows you wherever you go. Although this might make me a bad beginner blogger, sometimes you're just having too much fun in the moment to take several snaps, so here are just a few from the trip...
The famous fish tank, in the beautiful Radisson Blu hotel..
Christmassy decorations in the Radisson Blu, I would stay here all day every day..
As I said, it was freezing! I was wrapped up like an eskimo in my Topshop coat, Zara boots, and grey accessories..
Beautiful lights...
Have you ever visited Berlin? Which are your favourite cities to visit? Ever been on a mini-break at Christmas time?
