Berrima : Part One

For an incredibly sad reason, hubby and myself left the children with visiting grandparents, and had a couple of child free days last week.  One of which we spent having a quiet time in Berrima, about 2 hours south of Sydney.
I first visited Berrima 13 years ago when pregnant with my son. 
I remember spending hours mooching through this antique emporium.
Over the years we've pulled into Berrima for breakfasts and morning teas, whilst travelling south, but I have never had the opportunity to browse at my leisure, until last week.
The ladies were so helpful and lovely.  I came upon them sitting in a row, having a chat about Masterchef, supping their hot soup for lunch.
The whole building is bursting at the seams with old wares.  It quite takes my breath away.
I was on a mission to find a glass cake stand - more of that in another post.  The lovely ladies gave me a stool to sort through the shelves of glassware.  I found my cake stand and a few other goodies too.
I had such fun taking photos, but there are so many I will have to spread them over a few posts, to give you a true flavour of the store.
