Bundy Visits Lübeck, Famous for Marzipan



Another place Bundy visited recently was Lübeck, in northern Germany. Lübeck is famous for marzipan, a sweet ground almond paste that can be molded into all kinds of fun shapes, and painted with chocolate and other edible liquids. Above is the shop of Niederegger, premier German marzipan maker!



Bundy couldn't believe all these "vegetables" were really made out of sweet marzipan! He wondered whether ground eucalypt leaves could also become pretty shapes like carrots and apples. Maybe that would make people want to plant more eucalypt trees...



When he found a chair his size, Bundy hopped right into it, sharing the space with friendly marzipan seals. The seals were happy to meet this gentle, land-loving mate.




At last, Bundy received a delightful gift: a small marzipan bear of his own! Of course, Bundy is not a bear but a koala. Nonetheless, both animals share a special closeness of appearance as well as spirit.

Here, the two mates work hard to pose just right for a formal portrait.
