Apparently not only I am not able to speak German, I am also unable to write in English. I must have deleted part of my last post because it really makes no sense. I know that most of you are wondering about this amazing chocolate fountain that I began to talk about . Let me fill you in on the detail so you can put your troubled minds at ease...
The girls and I (the Americans that is) went looking for this dream-like chocolate fountain that we believed would be surrounded by tables of assorted things to dip into the chocolate. We thought that there would be fruit, cookies, and tons of other things.
After walking through the entire museum without even so much as a whiff of chocolate we climbed back up to the third floor and found the fountain. Boy were we suprised. Not only was the fountain not gigantic, it wasn't even large at best. This was probably one of the smallest "fountains" of chocolate I have ever seen ( not that I have seen many in my day, but still). The fountain was about 3 feet tall on top of a table. There was a fence between the visitors and the fountain. There was also an angry German woman who passed out miniscule waffers with chocolate on them from the fountain. You were only supposed to have one ( Nur Eins!) but Katie, Jess, and I found a way to sneak around and get extra chocolate.
All and all the chocolate museum was kind of a bust. We did learn however that 1 ton of chocolate costs 1.200 Euro, so if any of you are wondering what to get me for Christmas...just kidding. But speak of Christmas my told me to put my mailing address on here in case some ones doesn't have it, so here it is:
