Bruce and I visited the Gold Souk in Old Dubai. At first we weren't sure we were going to
see anything because the parking situation was ridiculous. Picture Market Mall at Christmas time and then add a bazillion more cars. There were at least 6 cars down every parking lane, driving slowly with their hazards on in hopes of spotting someone returning to their car. We decided to take a page out of the Golden Ski Hill-creative-parking-technique and found ourselves somewhere to park (not entirely legal).

The souk itself was quite fascinating. Instantly we were approached by random people advertising a "back room" with rolexes, and louis vuitton purses...all real of course. The jewelry was beautiful, lots and lots of gold. there were also pearls and many many varieties of stones.
