For My Shopaholics

So I went to the local market which is like Broadway Plaza but with tents. It is basically an outdoor mall. It is really pretty inside with a courtyard and salmon tiles. I got to see an amazing assortment of goodies. I bought some Indian tunics with sequins and beads hand embroidered on them (. I also found an amazing silk scarf for only $4. The pashminas are to die for. They make Nordstrom brand look cheap! For those of you interested leave your pashmina order by commenting on the post. They have so many colors in addition to Indian patters (which is basically floral and paisley combined). will be back to buy a ton of them, I just have to choose the colors and patterns I want, and how much I want to barter for them! Oh, and did I mention everything is $10 or less?!?

After we were done we came outside the market and a little boy that ould barely walk and came up and started begging. He kept making the hand signal for food. We bought him an ice cream. I wanted to take him home. He was so cute, but he kept following us near the street and I was afraid he was going to get hit. finally caught a ride in a rickshaw. I got in this tiny yellow rickshaw with two other co-workers. Rickshaws are basically three wheel motor cycles. The driver does not have a wheel but a handlebar like a bike. It is then covered in a black cloth. My first bad smells of India were experienced were in this tiny rickshaw. The cost of the ride was only $.15 though, so I can't complane.
