| We happened upon a parade as we walked out of our hotel. The city is famous for their puppets and puppet shows. |

 |
| This is my favorite photo from the trip. These girls in traditional dress were enjoying ice cream after the parade. |

| Seth tends to be shy when folks don't speak English but not at this moment. Craig and I lost him for a moment and found him here, chatting with this store owner and sharing sunflower seeds. |

| A door his size. |
 |
| Doors of a traditional home. I like them. |
I like the doors too! And I'm pretty sure I have a plate that exactly like one of the ones in the photo of the pottery that I got in Kazakstan. Speaking of...do they have chai cups there? If so, I may need you to buy me some and I'll pay you to ship them to me. I'm wanting to decorate a long high window sill with them but I only have like four and need several more.
ReplyDeleteAnd I'd also be so interested to know how the lady made music with the plates without breaking or chipping them.
Wow, does look amazing!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are great. I look forward to following you on your adventure.
