October 1, 2011: The warmest October first since we started measuring temperatures and still it is snowing in Maastricht. But rather just locally though, in the gardens and inner court of André Rieu's Castle.
Not real snow, but artificial snow. Rieu's staff has been very busy transforming the atmosphere of the castle into a Magic Winter Wonderland. It is all needed for the TV recordings for the traditional "Christmas Special" which Rieu is making for the German TV.
A rather strange sight: In front of the house people are swimming in and sailing on the river Maas. But with the violinist himself it is mid winter!!
Thanks to Kathrin for the article and John/Ineke Translating it. Thanks to Ineke for the Christmas Castle Picture.
