This is the gold souk we visited on Thursday. It turns out Thursday is the very worst time to go visit this area because there is so much traffic on the streets it's awkward for taxis to get to. The first taxi driver just pretended he didn't know what we were talking about - except we rang an Arab speaker and it's also in the most popular part of town so we now realise he just didn't want to be bothered getting through the traffic jams. Ha!
I didn't buy anything although there were a few nice pieces. I tried on a couple of rings $NZ200-$NZ400 and that was just with zirconias.
Bruce was really blessed with a free load of timber from the construction site across the road. He's making shelves and doing some building renovations at 'Holy Land Designs'.
