Christmas in Montpellier

Christmas is in the air in Montpellier!

There is a tall Christmas tree (with ornaments and all) in centre-ville:


The opera house is decorated to light up at night:


And the best part is a huge Christmas market that just came on Friday! They sell food, desserts, Christmas gifts, scarves, hot drinks, and "vin chaud" - a specialty of hot wine flavored with cinnamon. 


Montpellier is definitely beautiful this time of year, but as it gets closer and closer to the end of the semester, I am more and more sure that Dorothy had it right when she said "there's no place like home."
