MY WORLD - Waterloo city center


More participants here

My world was rather grey and dull yesterday. On Mondays most of the little shops are closed in Waterloo, because they were open on saturdays. Employees have the right of a weekend and when they have to work on saturdays they recuperate on mondays. Except of course for big shops and Shopping centers.

The look of the old movie theatre hasn't changed much from outside, but inside it is very modern

  1. Don't shops without people look forlorn? They always look so lonely to me.

  2. Your world is very charming, even with the gray skies and empty parking lots.

  3. I think it look nostalgic from the ourside especially with it being overcast.
    I like window shopping without a sea of people bouncing off of me.

  4. I always love when you share some of your city with us!! It's fun to 'walk' around with you into your shops, boutiques, and theaters like that. Thanks for sharing.

    It's hot here. And sunny. We had fog this morning, but now you wouldn't know it. It's like summertime. Well, almost.

  6. I commented here yesterday... WHERE did it go? Blogger drives me nuts sometimes...

    I said...

    This is a beautiful mall -- I don't think I could afford to shop there! It "looks" upscale -- I liked it back in the "good old days" when everything was closed on Sundays and people just relaxed!
