Knokke - The European Shoppers Paradise

The Lippenslaan is the main street starting at the square outside the old Grand Hotel and ending in the center of the town. It has virtually every exclusive brand name you can imagine, and it was there that I happened across Davidoff's Cigar Shop and was able, at last, to purchase a reasonably priced Cuban cigar to enjoy over dinner.

Almost opposite Davidoff's was the most mouth watering fine food shop, I hesitate to call it a deli! The quality of the food was matched only by the beautiful display of fine foods in table ready condition. The Belgians certainly know how to eat.

Another store was dedicated entirely to Rin Tin Tim memorabilia. The car with Rin Tin Tin and Snowy carried no price tag, and as the saying goes, if you have to ask the price, you can't afford it!
