We wisely had a few of our rects printed out a-la-tourist fashion, which meant we got a hefty tax refund at the airport, in euros. A little visit to the duty-free shop in Tegel turned into an Easter delight as I discovered all manner of typical German sweets and Easter eggs, which one can’t really get in Toronto, or only at a premium. I loaded up my cart, so this year, the boys will have a real “German” Easter, even back home in Toronto!!!
I also happened upon die “echten” Salzburger Mozartkugeln, a favourite of my mother’s, which I sometimes get sent to me from my relatives in Germany. Into the bag went a package of those, too!, as well as some treats for my colleagues at school. (My students already have a stash of mini gummi-bears tucked away in a suitcase somewhere!)
