Toubabs go to the Market
I'm learning the ways of the market! Bought myself a nice little carving at the Fajara Craft Market yesterday after the beach. Asking price: 750 Dalasi. Sale price: 350 Dalasi. Oh yeah. It was a long process though and even required a phone call to the sellers uncle. Then I had one guys follow me around the rest of the time trying to sell me a wooden turtle. Does anyone want one? I know where to find 'em.
Fridays are Mosque day. All the men dress up in traditional outfits and come out in droves to go to the mosque. There were hundreds of them on the main street. Every night the mosque plays prayers (?) and we can set our clock by it. Last night we were sitting around doing work for classes and when I heard the mosque I said "Is it quarter to 8 already?" and was exactly 7:45pm. Haha.
I'm running out of time!
Bye for now,
love, b
