  1. I'd be sort of scared to go down those stairs.

    1. Funny thing is that walking down you don't see all those colors! :-)

    1. There's an escalator right behind where that lady is standing! ;-)
      The quote, yes, it sort of was born out of the fact that the Nescafe stores are humongous, one could almost get lost in them. And all that for a few tiny coffee pods. ;-)

  3. "There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
    And she's buying a stairway to heaven.
    When she gets there she knows, if the stores are all closed
    With a word she can get what she came for.
    Ooh, ooh, and she's buying a stairway to heaven."
    Led Zeppelin

      I was very tempted to call it "Stairway to Heaven"!
