Today was great and delicious. We set off early and stopped off at an outlet shopping mall, to pick up some bargains. We then travelled a few more hours until we reached Zotter Chocolate Factory. 

We spent a couple of hours around the organic farm. We played welly golf – throwing Boots into different obstacles- and had fun lazing in hammocks. 

Hannah didn’t rest for long as she had spotted the monkey bars. 

Eventually our timed slot for the chocolate factory arrived! We were very excited, we started by watching a film and then progressed to the factory. We were given audio guides which were forgotten about by the time we climbed the stairs to the observation platform. Along every wall was a tasting area. We were given China spoons like the soup spoons you use in a Chinese restaurant to use. 

We tried Chocolate, 

We tried more chocolate. 

Then when we thought we couldn’t eat more. They served us warm milk with chocolate! We had to try which chocolate we would like in our milk first, before they made it – which meant more chocolate! 

Simon had given up by now – being sensible; Robert decided to take the tasting to a whole new level. He ordered himself a designer chocolate bar. This is were you ask to have different chocolate put together. You design it on computer and it arrives 30 minutes later. 

After the factory we travelled on to Vienna and parked in a camp site. We had a lovely day.
