My favorite thing

shells (are just one of my favorite things).... The abalone is local, but now over-fished and no longer here, the other one in the front came from Phi Phi Island in Thailand (made famous by the James Bond movie -'The man with the golden gun,' the 9th James Bond movie) and was given to me back as 'small change', when I bought chewing gum from a local vendor there. The one on the right somehow got into my shell collection and I don't know where it is from.
