Two weeks ago Doug and I went to a town, a city...yup a city with 8 million people. This town...the main function is to be the middle man between companies. And yes I mean the whole town. The stores function as the place you walk into and look at the samples and then decide how many you want...1 thousand, 2 thousand or do you want them delivered on a monthly basis. The main place that we went to was a huge...size of ten Denver airports put together...they sold everything. Umbrellas, bags of all sort, tools, flashlights, stuff animals, key chains, things you can buy at pier one, candle, picture frames, crystals, pearls, jewelry, pretty much anything you can buy at Kohls, JC Penny, gas stations, anything. The stalls of stores went on forever. I honestly do not know how to describe it. But this is where you could buy anything.
Doug got a great carry on bag for nothing, I got a bag, we got a few Christmas gifts, but it was just amazing to walk.
You could buy anything there and for a really reasonable price...well you couldn't just buy one thing at many of the stalls...they wanted you to buy 3000. For like nothing...5 cents or less..it was very different.
The cool thing was...there were tons of other people...and yes I do know that sounds rude but there was a diverse amount of people. We ate Lebanese food two times and Pakistan food. Great to have a variety.
We also stayed in pretty decent hotel for the most part...cheap but pretty clean. Smoke everywhere though...the room didn't smell like it until later that night but it was strong. I think two things we will never get use to...the bathrooms and the smoke everywhere...maybe the pollution too but that just comes and goes.
I guess that is all for now.
New adventures coming soon.
