In stories this week, we have a "sweet home" made out of chocolate, the world's fastest bicycle rider, a swimming hog heaven at a beach in the Bahamas, special-needs kids taking flight as co-pilots, and a bubble-shaped house in France.

All the interesting, odd anecdotes from around the world are recommended to you for a unique start to your holiday.

Sweet! 1.5 tons of chocolate turn into home

The Chocolate Cottage, comprised of 1.5 tons of chocolate, was built by French master chocolate sculptor Jean-Luc Decluzeau in Sèvres, in the region of ?le-de-France, just 30 minutes away from Paris.

Everything in the 18-square-meter cottage is made out of chocolate — from the walls and the roof to the wardrobe, the clock and even mugs and books.

It even has a little pond of white chocolate outside, right next to a chocolate flowerbed.
