    Cool

    Hi again everyone, here is another question, which country do you think have the best stores. I love the small stores in France with all the perfumes or eau the toilette. Also Japan big store is great, just walking by it and seing all the japanese things they sell is great. I have gotten some nice ties to at Italy and some Kahlua at the Mexico Pavillion [img]graemlins/beer.gif[/img] . ???

    I like that sports store in England, the one that has the big size soccer and tennis balls. I do not know why, but i always go in there and kick around a soccer ball for like 15 minutes.

    My DW loved the store in China, Canada, Mexico and UK the best. I liked the carts in Mexico too, loved the Troll store in Norway, and the German Christmas store.

    I'm into food and drink ( and being Merry? )
    How sad is it that after 4 days FROM Canada being in the World Showcase, I headed towards the Canadian Pavillion to have myself a Beaver Tail and a Molson Canadian... [img]smile.gif[/img] ...

    We enjoy Japan, also. We got my DD5 a red kimono and all of the extras from there. It looked great on her. She even worn it for Halloween. We love to go into all of the stores and buy candy from different countries. Then my DD takes them back to school and shares them with her classmates. Oh...Germany is also another favorite.

    I love the Perfumeria in France. I bought perfume there three years ago and now get more every time I get to go back. I have also had friends pick me up some on their visits. Whenever I wear it I think of Disney...... [img]smile.gif[/img]

    The kid in me will always love the toy store in Germany. Now that I'm an adult I love looking at the art gallery in France, they have the most beautiful impressionistic paintings. The reproductions of work done by Monet, Van Gogh and Renoir are cheap enough to collect. I also love the marketplaces in Mexico and Morrocco. The 'department store' in Japan is fun too.

    I have to admit that when I visit the US the only thing I miss is British chocolate...or candy I think you call it. So I like to go to the Tea shop in England and stock up on my favourite bars.
    That is the only thing I miss when i go to WDW
    ......sorry to say it just doesn't taste the same......

    I love the Christmas store in Germany--the blown-glass ornaments are so beautiful! I buy one every trip to WDW. I also enjoy the "marketplaces" at the Mexican pavilion and in Morocco! [img]smile.gif[/img]

    I'd like to throw my support behind Canada as well. Not only can I get some Roots stuff but I can talk hockey with the CM's there and get a Molson Canadian when I'm done shopping.

    I love the store in China -- everything from very expensive jade to little paper parasols. The shops in Great Britain and France are also great to wander through. I love the way one opens into another. And in France, you can always wind up in the pastry shop for a sweet little break! [img]graemlins/tasty.gif[/img] [img]graemlins/tasty.gif[/img]
