Vendors
in Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco are not quite as bad as those in
Cartagena, but persistence sure pays off, they seems to think. Not
as hot as usual this morning, so we walked to a small vendor area
near the ship (Walmart is across the street, but we didn't go there!)
where we bought some tourist items typical of the area. I finally
bought a flowered ceramic bowl---my only souvenir but one I will use,
and several other little things. I looked at beaded animals, but did
not buy one. Way too expensive and I got tired of looking and trying
to bring the price down. Where's Surani when I need her?
Had an
ugly fabric contest tonight which I am glad I did not win: there was
some really ugly fabric brought, but some of it I did not think was
ugly at all, and would have gladly used in a quilt.
People actually brought ugly fabric? I guess I can't even imagine what that would look like...
ReplyDeleteSometimes you don't think it is ugly when you buy it - but later on...."oh my, what was I thinking".
ReplyDeleteAh... I see :)
DeleteFinally, another country heard from!
