15 December

As promised, another picture of the Essener Lichtwochen illuminations. Has anybody ever been to Walsall during their illuminations? I have to admit that I haven't been, so I have no way of comparing. There is one thing I do know though: there is not a single deep-fried battered mars bar to be had in Essen.

Despite Wikipedia's lack of mention of Walsall, I know they are selling like hot buns there. Posted by Picasa

This is beautiful. I wonder how they could achieve such a delicate structure. I most definitely will have to take a closer look. Thanks for the intriguing pictures!

Yes we go to Walsall most years for the illuminations, which are on in October time (not linked to Christmas). The children love it - it's set in the arboretum, and you walk around the lake in the centre. It looks a bit more 'gimmicky' than the Essen shots, with themes taken from children's TV or book characters.
