France, Strasbourg

 

Strasbourg, France is famous for their nesting storks, so while visiting there I had to find a Nativity with a stork in it. I love this little pewter set. The baby Jesus is so big compared in size to Mary and Joseph. Below is a photo of the nesting storks. The legend is, if you set out a sugar cube at night, the stork will come and take it and leave you a baby.

 I also bought this very tiny hand-painted set made of metal. The pieces are less than an inch tall and very detailed.
