24. No shortage of Chocolates
It's everywhere in every shop and corner, you can find chocolates. Not a big fan of German chocolates but they sell chocolates from all over the world. Never thought I would hear myself say this, but I am actually sick of it right now, (I know can you believe?!?) but I guess too much of a good thing can leave you not craving it anymore (or just fat).
23. Best Beer and Pretzels in the World
So they're the experts of this stuff, they invented it, so it's good here. If you like that stuff.
22. Coffee in every corner
They love coffee, they love desserts so, in every single corner you can get your coffee and dessert. I love the steamed milk in Europe, makes my tea taste delicious! Ok, so we're on a German roll here..keep it coming.
21. Thermal Baths and Spas
These suckers are everywhere, some hotels even have saunas and spas, the Europeans love them. We went to the biggest thermal bath in Germany, called Erding, this place was massive. In Baden-Baden, they have 2 of the nicest thermal baths, Caracalla and Friedrichsbad, the first one is modern with natural, thermal waters the second, you have to go naked (wasn't too keen on that one!) what's up with all the nakedness here.!?!? sorry had a relapse. Although you'd have to read my other blog ("100 reasons why I hate Germany" to understand) Beware, that certain parks in Germany have naked sunbathing too, ok I guess a positive if you're into that stuff.
20. Hugo Boss Outlet
They have a Gynormous Hugo Boss Outlet here and a Bogner and Burberry and some other brand names. We got some pretty sweet deals there even with the exchange rate. The last deal was buy 2 Bogner jackets, get one free. Now where else can you get that in the States??
19. You are a celebrity here
So, if you tell them you come from L.A. you will get the ooohing and ahhhing. They really like anything from the States, you know Hollywood, movies, Ed Hardy, Polo stuff like that. They dream about going there and they really think that if you're in LA, you'll run into celebs, drive convertibles along Malibu, and see Paris Hilton in the clubs, but wait you really do!
