This morning the postman woke me up at 9am and brought me a package from my family with lots of chocolate, a cake etc. for today’s Santa Claus. So much that I won’t manage to finish them all this year, but we will see…

Meanwhile the city is packed with people on this second advent Saturday and everybody tries to sell mulled wine (i.e. in German: Glhwein) to do some charity – three organizations on the Ludwigstr. competing for each person walking by. Beside this stress I still do not have a clue what to buy for all my beloveds as presents. For sure I will make some quick shoppings the very last day before Christmas Eve as the year’s before. Actually now I would have time, but by far no motivation.
In the evening I went to see a gospel concert in the Franziskaner church with Martin. The first time I visited such kind of entertainment. It was not as bad as I thought in the beginning because the group came from Switzerland (Gospel Joy) and I thought they would produce less excitemtent than a colored group would do. But in the end they caught the full-packed church and earned lots of standing ovation after many encores.
