I am in doll wonderland!
July 27th, 2009
I am visiting Japan right now and we are having a wonderful time.
We have visited Kobe, Kyoto, Nara so far and of course we covered most of famous historical area.
But my another reason for this trip is too see friends I got to know through my dolls.
Palmira is one of my doll friend who lives in Hukui Japan and she is a well known antique doll collector.
I was very fortunate to be able to visit to her house to see her precious doll collection.
Her intense collection of antique dolls were true eye candies! I became a little girl at toy shop in a minute I entered her doll room.
You can see her wonderful doll collections at her website http://www.geocities.co.jp/PowderRoom/4336/collection.htm
Thank you so very much for your hospitality Plamira.
I also stopped by at Kobe doll museum in Kobe.
They have antique doll museum filled with fabulous French dolls and rare automatons.
If you happen to visit Kobe, I definitely recommend everyone to stop by this place.
