What an interesting title for an exhibit. (OK, so I thought it was a toy shop window. I can't help it, I still love toy shops!)

I thought it was a toy shop too.... actually, we were thrilled that it was an art museum because we feared it was to be another little market... it said "meat market' coming soon for the longest time... then suddenly, there was a gallery!

My kids would have preferred a toyshop. There are entirely too FEW places to buy toys in this city.

Speaking of coming soon, Jenni, some friends who already owned an extremely successful Turkish takeaway place were trying to open a proper restaurant in town, and was waiting for the chef to arrive from Turkey. His arrival was delayed, and for something like nine months, this building in the middle of the town was covered with "Coming Soon" signs. So long-standing customer got tired and walked right in and asked if that was the name of the new place! They are now known as Turkish Delight.
