Today, my new friend Chrissy and I went into Weiden to do some shopping. At first, we were going to goto a store called Real which is much like a a super Wal-Mart, but then I decided I'd rather go to the downtown area where all the clothing stores are.
Chrissy and I parked in a garage right in the center of all the shopping. From the moment went stepped into the little shopping mall... I was in heaven. This was exactly what I had been looking for. Stores. More stores. LOTS of stores! And all with so super cute clothes!!
Oh... and an H&M. Seriously. H&M. I was in heaven. Since there are no Forever 21's here.... H&M is like the next best thing. And let me tell you... it's SO MUCH BETTER than the H&M in the states. I must go back to this store. I must go back to Weiden!
Oh... and let me tell you about the shoe stores. They are everywhere. And cheap!! I got three pairs of shoes for 55 Euros. Wow. Can't pay that much at home for such cutes shoes. Here's one pair of sandals I got.
And for lunch... we stopped in this little German restaurant that Chrissy had been in before. I ordered Chili con carne with fresh bread. It was unlike anything I'd ever tasted before. Big chunks of ground beef with a red sauce and corn and beans. FULL of flavor. It was served in this big pot, almost like that's what it was cooked in. I barely made a dent in it... but I took the rest home for Emily. YUM!
So... all in all... it was a good day. Weiden has a farmers market on Saturdays and now that I know where to park... I just might go back there this weekend!! People keep telling me to goto Amberg for shopping too... Goodness, I can't wait to check it out!
