i agree, getting out and doing things for whatever reason lifts the spirits! Here we have Sovereign Hill, that's like a reanactment place around the goldfields. I used to love going there when I was a kid - everyone in Victoria has an excursion or two there at one point in their lives! Blacksmiths, potters, gold panning, and old school room - AND a sweet store, which had the best humbugs. That's what this shop reminds me of. I don't have a sweet tooth, especially for this kind of spun sugar sweets, but there was something very wondrous about it.
