The Bata Shoe Museum 250909

Wow, I went to find out a little about the museum to go there, ended up finding they had a workshop in the evening so me and Erica went for that, but I had during the day been at the museum to look around and take photos. I'm not going to tell too much about the shoes, but here and there I'll add a little something. Let's start with those from the timeline.

A quote from Elton John about these boots: "My Dear, I wouldn't been seen dead in theme on stage, I wore them shopping!"
