Memory Assembling

How long does it take to assemble memories together?

.................................

puzzle 1:Months ago, a friend took me to a local shoes shop which I loved very much, rarely high quality and genuine leather can be found elsewhere. Sadly, I was never able to find the shop afterwards, and my stupid ego/ laziness also stopped me from asking my friend where exactly it is...

puzzle 2: I had my very first fresh fruit salad and water-boiled only pasta in a shopping mall @ lisbon, where I definitely thought it is impossible to find it on this island. Weeks after, one day I was walking around the city center area, starved and tired, AND, HERE IT IS! The salad shop is right in front of me!

puzzle 3: There is this famous pastry shop in the very center of center in the city where we always wanna go and taste the food, unfortunately, center of center also implies how difficult to find a parking lot, after 5 rounds of driving in the center area, we gave up.

puzzle 4: Recently I have been practicing in this music school in the city, and after getting off the bus, I need to go through the main streets where lots of restaurants and shops locate.

After all, it took me two months to know....

Pastry shop, Salad shop, and Shoe shop is right next to each other, unfortunate to me, that street happens to be right at the curve point , where you can't see three shops in one straight line.
