SHOPPING IS NOT BORING WITH FORWARD STEPS MOBILITY
By Kim Pilic

Have you ever tried a Cinnabon scroll? These are truly amazing, moreish and pleasant to the taste buds, to say the least. The smell of Cinnamon greeted Emily and I during a recent community support visit to Garden City Shopping Centre - we couldn't resist! Emily's dog guide, Annie, certainly had her eyes transfixed on our delectable Cinnabon scrolls, in true Labrador fashion. (This image is certainly proof of that)!!!

We continued our sensory indulgences at the T2 tea shop, where an array of incredible scented teas filled our nostrils with aromatic delight. Then, with a little spontaneity, we entered Peter Alexander pyjama shop, in the hope of discovering some more scented candles following our visit to Dusk's candle store. We weren't disappointed, although our attention quickly turned to winter comfort in the way of a pair of black insignia slippers, donning a golden bling coloured Dachshund. Very cute, and definitely not your average slippers. These were more like a pair of ballet slippers encasing the foot with a warm hugging embrace, sure to keep the feet warm on cold floor surfaces.

Following this, our sensory experiences took on a whole new level in the form of a massage chair. Emily enjoyed some therapeutic deep tissue massage as a point of relaxation. This was definitely an experience not to be missed! Then, to top it all off, we stopped by a popular coffee shop to grab a hot chocolate with Turkish Delight syrup for the road.
Thanks for a fun sensory filled shopping expedition Emily. Looking forward to our next outing!!!
