It was a magical place where all you chocolate lovers dreams come true...it was actually pretty neat to see the history behind Cadbury and how most chocolate companies operate...there were definitely no Oompa-Loompas which was kinda sad...they are all extinct from the vermicious Knid...

...myself and an English chocolate lover from the 1800's, perhaps a leprechaun in disguise...

...the tour made a little pit-stop through "Beanville". It was a weird little town that was even crazier in person...not too sure what to say except for WOW...

...I believe they are long-distant cousins of the california raisins. Anyone remember those guys?...

...this is the discoteque inside the Cadbury Tour...Denise and Amy are showing off their dance moves. (It was actually a room that played all the popular Cadbury commercials on the last ten years)...

...a gorilla playing the drums to a very popular Phil Collins song. Cadbury musta paid a pretty pence to use that song for a commercial...

...a dream come true! Amy in chocolate form! It doesn't get any better than this...

That was our crazy little adventure of Birmingham. England was great and lots to see. I would recommend it to anybody...especially the chocolate tour and the visit of Manchester.
p.s. Cork is in a heatwave...it might reach temperatures of...hold on to your butts...24 degrees Celcius!!!
