Then we went to a games store where we met up with a friend of David's. I couldn't capture the size of the store as the lighting was not good, but the shelves of this store were lined with every board game imaginable.
The floor space was filled with tables and chairs ready for anyone who wanted to play any of the available games. Judging by the number of seated participants this looked like a pretty popular Sunday afternoon activity. To my mind this games store was 'big'.
Our last 'big' of the day was a visit to Powells new and second hand bookstore hosting over a million books and boasting to be the biggest bookstore in the world. In the days of decline in bookstores it was pleasing to see the many people who were enjoying browsing here. Three storeys high and with its own car park, it is worth asking for a map at the information desk to find your way around.
I found my way to the dedicated quilting section and had a good browse before we said goodbye to my last 'big' of the day.

I love the idea of a place to play board games. I gave a lot of mine away: it's a bit difficult to play them alone. ;o)
I could spend days in that book store. I imagine they had comfy corner to sit and relax with a book.
