Hello,
Near our
apartment (about a 5 minute drive) there is a interesting, fun and yummy land
mark called HARIBO museum, were we stock
up on lollies every now and then with a little help from relatives (not mum and
dad who tried to get rid of some L). I
think that we want to just skip around the museum and get to the lolly shop at
the end were we can get lollies. HARIBO came from a man called Hans who made
lollies in his laundry and his wife delivered them on bicycle. Hans took two letters of his first name (HA)
, two from his second (RI), and two from him hometown Bonn BO HARIBO. Sadly
enough he died before his company got big so his sons took over his work for
him. At the end there is a lolly shop
were you buy all the products but since they give you so many free samples
throughout the museum we did not get a lot and if we had of been with Dad only
then I’m sure that we would have got nothing but thanks to Mum, Pippi, Helen and
kate we managed to get past Dad alright. Next to museum is a lolly factory, but
sadly the do not give tours because they say that they are “working” but if you drive past you will think that
they make all their money from the museum or that Uzes (Haribo) has a lot of public holidays.
Their motto is:
Haribo c’est beau la vie
pour les grands et les petites
That
Translates in to :
Haribo it is a good life for the big and the tinys.
