I was watching a German TV program today and I found it really funny. One of the segments was about finding out about what makes a German, German...and the reporter talked about the Black Forest. There were the cuckoo (I'm not sure about the spelling) clocks, which they made, but exported mostly to the US as well as different kinds of clocks, from big to small clocks, and interestingly enough, they even have a clock association there. Hmm...
Then there's the Black Forest cake...yummy....where the cake maker / baker actually made more for tourists...not surprising. I would want a taste of the genuine Black Forest in the Black Forest.
Then there's the funny hat. I don't know what they called it, but it looked like there were red big berries on top of the hat which was made popular in a certain town there. But funnily enough, he couldn't find that kind of hat in 15 minutes in shops and in houses. So I guess they have probably outgrown the hat...hehehe...
The highlight of the segment was when the reporter asked four persons to race around the German flag being blindfolded and carrying a clock and a Black Forest cake.
I thought the segment was funny and well worth watching. Hopefully, I can catch that same reporter again. I'd certainly like to find out more about Germany from his viewpoint.
