A few days ago the unthinkable happened - the charger for my Macbook went kaput. That meant that we now had only one charger for the three Mac's in our house which could possibly be considered as the end of the world. Being a smart consumer I got on the phone and spilled my dilemma to William from Apple. He pointed me in the direction of the nearest retail store and that was that.
Today my dad and I decided to finally make the trip downtown to replace said charger. Now, downtown Stuttgart is rather confusing when it comes to driving and finding a place to park is even for difficult. Today for some reason more than the usual number of roads were either closed or one way (Germany seems to be doing construction EVERYWHERE all at the same time so driving is ridiculous). After driving and walking through a bit of a maze we finally spotted our destination, Compustore. Thankfully the man behind the counter spoke fluent English and knew exactly how to fix my charger problem. Five minutes later problem solved.
Seeing as downtown is not a place we get to often there was no sense in just turning around and going home from there so we ventured down the shopping street a little farther. We stumbled upon probably the most exciting shop I've encountered in all of Stuttgart: a cupcake boutique!!! Didn't get a chance to try that out, but I will be returning ASAP for some cupcakes and froyo. I have to say, it was a bummer that I had to trek all the way downtown to replace a dead charger, but it led to a VERY exciting discovery!
