Inside the Mall~
The vast expanse of ceiling tile in this part of the wall has been broken
by a mural, which seems to be completely ignored by all the shoppers below. 
Wombat Waterbeds is to the north, and the Midgaard Cinema is to the south.

mural~
A wonderful agricultural scene depicts a farmer sitting on his tractor, waving to

but has been obscured by layers of graffiti plugging the author's website.~

Inside the Mall~
The obnoxious music is really getting annoying now, but the people here
seem to be enjoying, or at least tolerating it.  A shop full of shiny
gadgets that don't do anything is north, and Microwave Shack is to the
south.

posters~
The coming attraction seems to be "The Mayor of Midgaard," a comic tale about a
young man who dreams of one day holding the key to the Western Gates. It stars
teenage heartthrob and 15th century Florentine banker Cosmo de' Medici.~

This posh department store was established in 1928 by Edgar
Fratzerjibbit, a poor tailor with dreams of stock options.  Unfortunately,
he had a twelfth story office and jumped out the window when the market
crashed, leaving his son Orville to build the small family store into a
multinational corporation.

A steady stream of cars runs into and out of the parking lot here,
filling Penny Lane past any reasonable semblance of well-mannered traffic. 
From the south drift the sounds of angry drivers trying to navigate the
intersection.  The parking lot spreads out in all other directions, and
further to the north the low spread of the mall is visible.

driver's family tree contains too many sheep and monkeys to allow him anywhere
