Ice cream visit

On the way home from the gym yesterday I decided to try to stop at that ice cream place since I had the kids with me (good excuse). There was no line at all when we passed it on the way to the gym so I wasn't sure if it was the right place, but on the way home by the time I parked the car (up on the sidewalk, that's how you do it here apparently) and crossed the street there were about 10 people in line. Fortunately it was very quick, and they only had 7 flavors - vanilla, chocolate, strawberry raspberry, blueberry, one called delicacy, and I can't remember the other. I got the kids some chocolate and we stood out on the sidewalk to eat it. They sort of liked it, but it had bits of stuff inside that they didn't like - not sure if it was nougat, pieces of fruit, and bits of chocolate maybe? I forgot to bring my camera with me so I didn't get a picture of that the stuff was. They both ended up throwing it away about halfway through. Afterwards Ava decided she wanted to try to blueberry  next so I went back in and ordered that. I only paid for one but I think they gave me a free one for some reason, maybe because the woman behind the counter accidentally knocked over the basket of spoons so I picked them all up for her. I am pretty sure this was the blueberry, it was really good and you could tell there was fresh fruit inside it but I wasn't blown away by the place - it was no Smitty's in Falmouth!!  I definitely would never wait in that line if we go back. My favorite flavour is coconut anyway and there are a bunch of places on the main square that sell that so I will eat ice cream there if I ever want it.
