We love visiting new places, but we also enjoy exp We love visiting new places, but we also enjoy exploring our own backyard.  This weekend we checked out the Christkindlmarkt in Carmel, Indiana.  This holiday bazaar features traditional German foods, music, and a marketplace of German goods. The atmosphere of craft stalls, outdoor ice skating rink, and thousands of Christmas lights is absolutely magical.  This is the second year Carmel has hosted this amazing event and our second year attending.  It’s definitely become a new family tradition.
