Went to the night market in Temple St last night and bought myself a new pair of sunglasses since I broke my other ones in Paris (not tackling the hat thief - just squashed them accidentally). Kind of fun to barter for them, and they cost $16AUD in the end.

Going to a goldfish market this arvo - might buy my brother a souvenir. I am sure he would love a dead goldfish. We will try to get it through the rest of the trip alive by storing it in water in a zip lock bag, but you never know what will happen. Hey, it might be a snack yet - it seems there are worse things on the menu here…

First phrase in the food section of the Lonely Planet guidebook is the translation for “I don’t eat dog”….
