Magnum!!! Eileen, We ate them so fast I forgot to take a picture!
Can you blame us?
Here's what I dug up here in Europe.
We will try to force ourselves to test these.
OOOH such work
The crack of the Magnum chocolate as you bite in, followed by the contrast of the smooth and silky ice cream transports you away to a land of luxury. With a delectable range that includes the original, pinnacle of pleasure Magnum Classic as well as the sweet, creamy Magnum White, Magnum also offers chunky Almond, cool Mint and Double Caramel.
How it all began
Magnum was launched in the UK in 1987 and in Ireland in 1990, making it the first widely available hand held indulgence ice cream in both countries. Since then, Magnum lovers have been treated to an array of delicious flavours such as Double Chocolate (1996), Double Caramel (2000), Yoghurt Fresh and Magnum Intense (2002).
Then there are the unforgettable limited editions titled '7 Sins' (2003) and '5 Senses' (2005) that escalated the indulgence credentials of Magnum to giddy heights!
In 2006, Magnum relaunched Almond and Mint and refocused on the core range (after all, classics never really go out of fashion).
Most recently, Magnum Gold?! was launched (2010).Our first "Golden ice cream" - cracking golden-dipped milk chocolate covering smooth Madagascan Vanilla ice cream with a swirl of delicious caramel.
Now into 2011, Magnum introduces the deliciously decadent NEW Magnum Ecuador Cocoa and NEW Magnum Ghana Cocoa made with specially selected cocoa beans from Rainforest Alliance Certified™ farms.
Magnum Mini
For a mini moment of indulgence our Magnum Mini range is perfect. At half the size of a standard Magnum, Magnum Mini is just right for that after-dinner me-time treat.
The Magnum Mini range includes Classic, Almond and White as well as a Mint, Dark and Classic pack and a Double Chocolate and Double Caramel pack. Most recently, Magnum has launched Magnum Mini Liqueurs, making your me-time that bit more indulgent.
Magnum Mini Liqueurs combine the highest quality ingredients with just a dash of your favourite liqueurs carefully blended with the smooth Magnum ice cream you love. Choose between two unique and delicious flavours: a refreshing lemon ice cream with a tangy swirl of Limoncello coated in white chocolate or a deliciously smooth vanilla ice cream with an indulgent swirl of Irish cream coated in milk chocolate – the perfect little treat to unwind!
We gotta try this one when you get home! We have to figure out a way to do this one when you guys get home. Can't believe you didn't send a picture with a Magnum in it!!!!
hello love the windowville pic. some of your pics of homes, buildings look like some of my Dicken's Village pieces. I've heard Holland can be pretty rough.....maybe that was Denmark..... you'll find out!
photography Lowell,
I really appreciate the pictures. I have decided that seeing them in context to where you are rather than trying to get the benefit of enjoying them all at once is sooooo much better!! I can enjoy them so much more as you send them from your location. Plus I am not overwhelmed with all of them at once.
God Bless,
Nancy
miscel picture Again...wrong pic for comment, but no submit button on last pic. Re: "miscel picture"...What I wanted to say was that it took me a moment to figure out the title. "Miscellaneous Picture"?
small hotel I know this is the wrong pic for the comment, but occasionally, I don't get a "submit comment" space. Such was the case when I commented on the previous pic, "a small hotel". Just wanted to say, compare that hotel to a small hotel in the US. Where is our sense of beauty?
Ages of buildings in Strasbourg Hi Tom,
The timber-framed structures in the Petite France Quarter
are 16th and 17th Century. The Gothic Cathedral was started
in the 1200's
The old Kammerzell House that's down towards the center
of the old town is all wooden and was built in the 15th and
16th century. I'll send you a email attachment with a picture
of it. Hey, did you find the submit comment button?

Wow Now that's a hot dog! Loved the pictures of the houses on the street's of water. Must be awesome to see. What is the average age of the buildings in the photos?
The Swiss Adventure Glo - First Class "becomes" you! Sounds like you had a wonderful day with your cousins. Can hardly wait for the Belgium pics....love and hugs, Eileen
Holy Cow!! Those hot dogs are something!! My favorite is Petite France Quarter #2, though they're all just so lovely!! I love the architecture also. God speed,...
Hello from Arizona I have so enjoyed traveling alongside you two. I feel like I am on this journey with you. I am having fun reading your blogs & looking at the pictures. You sure look like you are having fun.
Love you guys, Nancy
Love That 'French Look'! Love the quaint look of Europe. Pictures are beautiful. Gloria you have captured that 'French Look'!! My favorite pic is PFQ-3. Which one did you pick Lowell...PFQ-4? The center building's reflection in the water looks crooked...thought that might be a quirky thought of yours! LOL! Hey! Look! I have a submit button I can click on!! (even though it only shows half of it.) Au revoir! G~
