Flannel really becomes me. I felt totally at home in Inkwood. I walked away with a feeling of having traveled somewhere exotic. Indeed, I was lost in the travel section for a majority of my visit but I agree that lingering in a bookshop, touching the covers of pages of brightly colored books, while a wonderful hippie woman is asking you what you thought about such a sua#h&8230;reclly beats a quick mouse click on Amazon. Human kind will be lost when we no longer care to experience the life we live. These bookshops are a copper wire of connection and I come to life again when I walk into a place like that.
