AFter the museum, I hired a taxi to go do some last minute shopping for KB. She sent me on a mission to get scarabs. Probably the worst place to buy them, but I got a little last time tour of the bazaar area. I camped here for a while to rest and wait for my driver to return and take me back to hotel. There were a group of americans that just came out of the market and they had all been apparently been taken a little. One actually got something in his bag that wasn't what he negotiated for (little slip of the hand). One lady didn't check change and got some old Chinese money mixed in instead of E Pounds. And me, of course, even though I haggled, I probably paid too much for the 6 scarabs that I got for KB's lab techs. Asha for we. That place came be overwhelming as you are immediately bombarded with people trying to get you into their shop. And the tea is not free. you pay. Once they figure out that you are American, the price shoots through the roof, too. But, I'm done and back at hotel for a quick rest before KB returns in about an hour.
