First TOYfair in Lisbon

The first Toy fair in Lisbon happened last weekend. While the space and the expositors are not the ones found in Paris or Brussels, it was nevertheless a good start - with lots of public coming in (entrance was free) and some nice toys on display.


Also to note was a good job from the 501st Star Wars legion - Portugal, who were responsible for promoting the whole event on the streets surrounding hotel Roma.

Hong Kong - Tai Yuen Street

First a quick picture for touristic guides - nice skyline by the way....


And now let's go to what really matters !















Tai Yuen street is full of toystores of the kind that still hang things around... the ones that have robots hidden under piles of other blisters and boxes... toystores where you can hardly breath but it doesn't matter.

It is a quest - it is archeology - and waiting to find the unexpected.... If I am very rich one day, this is what I want to do. From Tokyo to Bangkok to Mexico City. Go and looking for these.

These places still exist.

They are just much harder to find.
