These are my favorite types of stores. Malls are claustrophobic: shops are "real". (The details are better if you enlarge them.)

All very good for you, healthy for mind, body, and soul:) (the last one looks like a chocolate store...) Love this set!! Great combo!! ????? · 2010-10-25: 15:37

I hate malls! They are spreading everywhere and kill the smaller shops. I prefer to go shopping in places like this. Great set! Eiram · 2010-10-26: 15:57

These are without any doubt my favorite shops, too. I can spent a whole afternoon in such a book store. Lovely pictues! Unchained · 2010-10-29: 03:40
