Default Porsche gift from Germany (way cool)

OK, so long story short...I travel for work and I am gone a lot, so we have a live in nanny. Well our nanny is from Germany and her father works at Porsche (30 years).

Every now and then I get a box and like a little kid I rush to open it.

Yesterday I got a really cool one.

For those who don't know what this is, it is an advent calendar. You open a new door each day as a countdown to the holiday (religious meanings left out as not to offend anyone)

Anyway, I peaked and each day there is a chocolate wrapped with the image of a different Porsche . Enjoy the pics.

You have not seen the best part. Hold on. Let me get a sneaky pic of what is in the doors...

That is something that would go into our collection... sans chocolates of course, but we'd keep the wrappers!

What a cool gift!!!

Did you get two? If so, open one now, save the other for 20 years and sell it at the L.A. VW/Porsche Literature swap meet for a Kajillion dollars

Keep the bag, have it framed in two-sided glass without damaging it so you can see it from both sides, hang it in your basement cave. Done.

That image is also the cover to a large scale older Porsche calendar. I know where I can get my hands on a few of these for very little $ if anyone out there is interested. Very high quality printing. Probably at least 5 available when I last looked.
