Our first stop was a bakery-cafe. Thankfully it was warm so we were able to thaw out a bit. Plus Dan treated us all to hot drinks and pastries. Now I love Starbucks, and you all know where my loyalties lie, but Starbucks pastries don't hold a candle to pastries over in Germany. Chuck and I shared some sort of flaky, gooey, nutty ensemble that went fantastically with my loose leaf hot tea, and his espresso. The hot tea came in this clear, double-walled cup thing that was super cool. Yes, I do realize that the majority of my posts are about food, but can you blame me? It was all too good not to talk about!
After the bakery, we sauntered over to this huge building that is popular in that part of the country. It's a place that people come to use the spas, find healing, attend a concert, or theater. We walked by this interesting fountain that was flowing with "healing water". It was just pouring freely and looked so enticing. My family suggested I try it. I should have been a little bit more in tune that I was the ONLY one curious about tasting the "healing water". I leaned over very carefully, stuck my tongue out gracefully, and this putrid liquid washed over my poor, unsuspecting tongue. I gagged like crazy. And I don't even feel healed! My oh-so-supportive family found this to be quite humorous. I'm a fool.
After that it was finally time to order pizza, pick it up, and head back home. We were all so curious and really excited as we anticipated what we might find upon arriving back at the house....
Cool sleigh at the spa/theater building place.

Well that was a mean post. I was looking for the answer to the mystery. :)
haha, "putrid water." It's not that bad. We've all had our share of tasting it. Think of it as cleansing. :)
yea, thanks for leaving us to hang on the mystery nite! :(
