Perugia and Eurochocolate

I wasn't sure if I wanted to go to the international chocolate festival. I'm not really sure maybe it is because deep down I knew that I would love if far too much. The train took about three hours from SMN station to Perugia. Once off the train, I was not exactly sure where I was going, but that is part of the fun. We walked in the general direction of the festival. We found ourselves in the old part of the city filled with archways and cute stairways.
After about 45 minutes of wandering, we found a very promising crowd, along with some very breath taking views of the city. The historic district where the festival is held is at the very top of the hill. First order of business was to order food, as we don't know much Italian we used our broken Italish (does that work like Spanglish?). The food ended up being pretty good, but I'm not exactly sure what I ordered. After wards we bought the eurochocolate card. The card is a punch card that you take to different vendors to get samples at. And it came with a chocolate picture frame, which I just don't understand. Other than that there were a lot of people and of course a lot of chocolate. I really had a good time and was glad that I went.
