The street sellers are a recurring theme in this part of the world. Today I broke down and followed the lesson of my teacher from earlier in the week, John. I sat and did some very focused negotiations with some of the local clay figure vendors. The oldest being around 8. I estimated there must have been around 13 of them at one time. The photo is the end result of about 40 minutes of barter and the equivalent of about $1.15 us. The vino tinto took much less time and was a welcome bonus. Those of you who know me are wondering "RED", is that possible. The answer is when in Rome do as the Romans do. Yes, I have found a bit of my red groove. Will it be imported? Only time will tell. FYI, do not be surprised to see these objects in your Christmas stockings this year....
