I thought the first picture was of Krakow, Poland! It looks very similar to ul. Grodzka. I wish I had known about the challenge, I published on my profile photos from Nashville, TN and Madeira, Portugal.

  We haven’t been to Kraków for years! It’s a shame if it’s that beautiful at Christmas!
  You have some lovely Xmas photos on your blog, so it’s truly a pity you didn’t participate! Keep your eyes peeled for the next challenge :)

so many beautiful photos – such a pity a was away from home that time, I could have sent some archival photos of mine. But even a bigger pity was the non-existent Christams atmosphere in a Muslim country…
