Weisbaden and Rudesheim

This morning we were docked in Mainz, but took a bus to Weisbaden to the "twinkling star" Christmas market.  We bought a lot of stuff!

While we were in Weisbaden the ship sailed on to Rudesheim. So the bus took us back to the ship's new docking spot there.  Rudesheim was small but very pretty.  We took the little choo choo train into town and walked around the Christmas market - which took up most of the town.  It was probably our favourite market so far.
We also stopped in a cafe to try the local speciality: the Rudesheimer coffee.  It was quite a production with the waiter heating the brandy and lighting it on fire before pouring the coffee over it. It was very yummy!
