Mosaic Monday: Visiting the Hotel del Coronado

After our unusual week of rain and whacky weather a week ago, we visited
the Hotel del Coronado for a nice sunny days' outing.
These photos are from one of the lovely shops on the premises of the Del.....
the Babcock & Story Emporium.

 

  
This shop had a lot of the items that I love to browse through but the prices were on the high side, so I just enjoyed looking and photographing the interesting vignettes.

 Please join Mary at Little Red House to see the what the other participants in Mosaic Monday have in store for you.

Thank you for taking the time to comment.....I appreciate and read all of them.

I love shopping with you Lenore. These shops have some lovely things that would be fun to bring home, but I would just have to browse too. I'm saving my bucks for Summer flea markets. lol

I visited San Diego this summer. Loved the shops in the lower level of the Hotel Del Coronado, but yes, pricey!
