A CHOCOLATE BAR WITH POPCORN IN IT

Today is Saturday! I woke up to the sound of shuffling in my room, only to look over and have my host mother standing in front of me. "We're waiting for you for breakfast" she says. I felt so bad for sleeping in so late (10:30) and making them wait. They served a huge breakfast with bread and cheeses and meats and jelly and chocolate croissants and it was very yummy. I had some bread with Nutella. I don't think it's possible to pass up Nutella. :)
We finished up and Jakob and I got ready to go to the mall with the other exchange kids. It was really fun. It was a lot like Boston in that it had a large outdoor section, and a big indoor mall (I'm talking 6 story mall, big) with a lot of really nice stores. The town that it was in is called Brunswick, the same place where I had dinner a few nights ago. We spent a lot of time there. I didn't buy anything because it was too expensive, but I did get some gelato that was so incredibly good.
After the mall, and taking the bus, the train, and walking home, we discovered that Jakob's house was locked and we had no way to get in. We asked his neighbors if they had a key, none of them did. Finally his next door neighbor let us go inside his house. They have a son that looks about a year younger than Jakob and me. We played table tennis and I didn't do as badly as I thought I was going to. Jakob's parents came home within a half an hour.
Jakob's parents took me to the grocery store and, because we brought them so many gift, they made me pick out some candy. I got a chocolate bar with crackers on top (it's actually so good, Björn had it the other day), a CHOCOLATE BAR WITH POPCORN IN IT (oh my goodness what even), Haribo snails, Haribo fruit things, and Mowam hard candy things. It was very generous of them and I thanked them profusely.
Next, Jakob and I met up with some of the other exchange kids and hung out. It was a great time. They ordered each person their own pizza. We were all shocked. What didn't surprise me was that the boys took the whole pizza, folded it in half, and ate it. Typical boys. It was a really fun time and I liked getting to talk to some of the other German students. :) tomorrow we are going to a water park!
Choos!
