I love the continental shops, too, they present such a cheery front. <br /><br />Peter - the food shop is a gorgeous Viennese style cafe in Bad Ischl, east of Salzburg, specialising in cakes - how could we resist that!

I too remember those canisters with the money and receipts. How about the parcels wrapped in brown paper and string with a little loop for your finger. <br /><br />I think European shops win hands-down over the more commercialised shops here or in UK. I was so tickled with the French shops with their emphasis on presentation indoors and outdoors and then also in the wrapping.

However, I have to admit, her interest is not limited to other countries.<br />I also have to acknowledge that you have a keen eye for very nice and colorful shops!
