we met up at the christmas market (we were terribly late and i'm so sorry about that) where the girls first spent a good bit of time watching a little train do it's rounds. that gave the non-pregnant grown ups some time to enjoy their first gluehwein and chit chat.
we then managed to squeeze our way though the crowd. christmas markets on late sunday afternoons are completely crazy just in case you didn't know. i kept thinking, i could just yell "my water just broke!!" and we'd be out of there in no time, but i didn't wanna mess with labor karma so we just stuck in out with the rest of the half german half american crowd.
on our way over to the ferris wheel i saw three big african-american guys and one of them was carrying a baby in a brightly colored baby wrap!! hot, hot, hot! sorry, i got way excited over this guy and just had to tell you about it. :D
so as it got dark (around 4 o'clock these days) we waited to get on the gigantic ferris wheel which gave us a great view of wiesbaden at night and a slight bit of nausea.
afterwards we decided it was time for a stout and sandwich break at the irish pub where the girls quickly got on the stage already prepared for karaoke night. the first wave of dressed up G.I.'s and their "oh my god, prom night is such fun!"-looking german girl friends caused us to rush out of there very quickly after two pints (well, one yucky mom beer for me).
we did some more christmas market browsing, drooled over really pretty wooden toys and instruments for kids, walked the chos to their bus, back to the market for cotton candy and roasted almonds and then the bus took the happy, content and tired stephens family home.
great day! :)
