You know the phrase "bull in a china shop"? Well, that was me in Abbey Parlour. This is one tiny-ass little shop. It's also wall-to-wall shelves full of little glass knick-knackie things. I'm accident prone as it is, and here I was shmooshed into this shop laden with several shopping bags, a camera bag and my ginormous purse. I was afraid to breathe, let alone take a step and risk a disaster.
This gift shop has all kinds of stuff--figurines, jewelry, photo frames, ornaments, etc. They have something suitable for all age groups as well. I did manage to get through the store, very slowly, without causing any damage other than hitting some poor little boy in the head with my camera case. I bought a couple of fairy figurines for my mom (she loves fairies) and a crystal necklace as well. Very cool! read more
