Festival Shopping!

I’m nearing the end of my Festival of Nations series and I’m saving the best for last and nearly-last. Shopping! I might have all the best intentions in the world, but I can’t seem to get away from this festival without getting my wallet out. And I’m not alone! Check out some pictures of the goodies on display!

From handcarved wall art, to jewelry, to clothing, bags, toys, musical instruments – if you want it, it’s probably available!

The only problem sometimes is shouldering your way up to the displays. Did I mention in previous posts how many people there are?

But, if you are patient and friendly, you’ll get there.

I would have loved to get this fellow, but literally, just after I snapped the picture, someone else snapped him up!

I’ll finish up the festival on Thursday by sharing what I did get! But, tomorrow, it’s Wordless Wednesday with Silent Jay. See you then!

(I would love for you to come back to visit, so please SUBSCRIBE using one of the buttons I have up there at the top on the left. And be sure to find me on Facebook for behind the scenes stuff and general goofiness. I’m on Twitter, too, but be warned – I have been known to accidentally tweet-bomb during baseball season!)
