Who and where: Scott and Vicki Ahlers of Collinsville at the Stadhuis (City Hall) in Bruges, Belgium.
The trip: They traveled in December 2024 to London and Ghent and Bruges, Belgium, to see European Christmas displays and markets.
Travel tip: “Seeing the displays and decorations in the centuries-old European locations was amazing. The liveliness and beauty of them were incredibly enjoyable. Make sure you wear comfortable shoes because the cobblestone streets and sidewalks are hard on the feet and legs.”
