Bead Hunting...
Today we rented a car and driver from the hotel so we could go out exploring. This is a picture of school letting out for lunch-those are motorcycle taxis on the wall. We hit the local grocery for some bags of dried mango slices. Heaven. I think I bought enough to last me a lifetime. Botch also wanted some more Colgate 360 toothbrushes-we're both hooked on those at the moment. Have you tried them? Fabulous. We poked around the souvenir shop, bought some gifts and these:
Key chains-Smeechains, those are beads!!! BIG, lovely, honkin' BEADS! They are inlaid shell and what a score at around a dollar each! I love the stripey ball. Always bring a few beads home from your travels. You can use them in future jewelry projects and remind yourself of that wonderful trip to wherever.
I didn't take too many pictures today. Mostly from the car like this one. I'm mad at myself for not taking some pictures of the wonderfully painted "multi-cabs." Google it, I'm sure there are a million pictures of them....

It must be cool to live in a place where you can find beads like that! I've got to do some more snooping around in shops when a visit Japan this summer.
