Cadbury World!

Well, if you were thinking we'd had enough chocolate this trip, you were probably right. However, we took Uncle Paul's advice and went to Cadbury World in Bournville just south of Birmingham. This is the original Cadbury manufacturing plant and is still operating. We had an amazing time and a sort of Willy Wonka tour including more samples! Nobody fell into the chocolate lake but we did get to write our names in chocolate! After the tour, there was another building near the kids play area that had another couple of brief movies to watch followed by a warm cup of melted chocolate with whatever candy you wanted! Soooooooooooo yummy! When we got home, Nigel and Lori both strangely felt the need to squeeze a run in.....Which was then cancelled out very quickly by a final trip to another pub (last chance and all....). Nigel decided that this fish and chips was his best yet this trip and Lori had the Steak and Ale Pie which was also delicious. Then back home for packing...so sad. This has easily been our best family vacation ever and has set the bar pretty high for future holidays! We will miss the quiet lifestyle, the lovely backyard, the chickens and rabbits, the country roads, fresh eggs...I could go on but you get the picture. See you all soon!
