Rode our bikes from Gardiner and found this unique shop on Water St. run by a charming Mainer! Great chocolates, assorted candies and the most unique gifts. A wonderful find and suggestions for lunch as well. Shame our politicians avoid putting energy into gentrification of a downtown begging for help!!!
