    School desks are the same all over the world it seems. 🙂 I loved seeing the stacks, and stacks of rugs.

    Look at those beautiful rugs! Are they called Souks? I’ve never heard them call them that. Thank you as always for sharing. ❤️❤️❤️

    I loved all of the textiles too. Do more people shop the stores or markets?

    Those rugs are gorgeous. Are they prayer rugs? How beautifully those bottles are displayed!

    Those Hookahs are looking beautiful – artistic. I would not imagine one using it for smoking though. Sigh.

    I would love one of those carpets Lynn. Only problem would be that I trip over small cracks in the flooring tiles, so carpets are definitely out of the question for me. They are all so pretty though. Too bad I’m already using all of my wall space for other things. Hugs. A.

    I do love the rugs but I think they are quite expensive? Worth it though 😉 And you can laugh at me, my first thought was ‘wow, look at all of those bongs!’

        Just turned 36 Lynn 😉 I did realize that they were hookah’s, after a minute or two, just because of the location the picture was taken in 😆
