    It was not quite what I expected. Only 4 or 5 U.S. dealers. I was able to buy a few things for the shop but nothing amazing. I sold nicer stuff than I bought. We'd accumulated some exotic asian stuff and some better world paper at the shop and I took it with me and was able to sell most of it, though I'm bringing back the Malasia tin hat money, a rare Martinique note and some other goodies that I was certain I'd sell here.

    And no, I didn't buy any U.S. silver dollars here :) although the fakes were in abundance. I did see a group of PCGS proof trade dollars that I liked but they were being sold as I got to the table....missed again, dangit!

    Now here's the best part. All the dealers have departed and I'm completely alone on the far side of the globe for another week <insert evil laugh here>.
    Now the fun and exploring can begin. I've already gotten lost once in the city...intentionally. Now to take a bus tour into the country, split away from the tour (with the tour guides blessings of course) and get REALLY lost lol. I just have to get over this queasy stomach I acquired from some weird shark fin dumplins yesterday. :eek: Ah well, I bet Marco Polo didn't whine about things like that so I won't either.

    I may post more later, or may just post again when I get home and get caught up again.

    Best to all,
