We boarded an early train and headed to Perugia for Italy's largest chocolate festival, EuroChocolate. I don't know how a day can begin better than with a rich cup of liquid chocolate bars... oh yes I can, an entire day of chocolate.
€5 bought us a chococard, a small pleasure insuring card that we took to nine different booths to receive "gadgets". A gadget varied between booths from a simple, albeit sumptuous, Lindt truffle to a large bar of decadence that was molded into a map of Perugia's historic center.
There is no way to explain this luscious, delectable, heavenly, divine day of gastronomic rewards and historic explorations. Truly unforgettable.
