Los Angeles: Galco's Soda Pop Stop

Recently, I made a run to Galco's Soda Pop Stop in the north LA neighborhood of Highland Park. Galco's is housed in an old grocery store building, and all the aisles are filled with sodas of all kinds, colors, and flavors - some mainstream, some unique, and some old-fashioned. They even have old-fashioned and hard-to-find candies, and beers from around the world. It's a pretty interesting place, and if you find yourself in LA, you should check it out. Below are photos of what I got; it's way too easy to spend a lot of money in that place, so I had to force myself to head for the checkout counter before I put more sodas in my shopping cart!
