handicrafts throughout the bazaar, and the owners were justifiably proud

And what would an Egyptian market be without
a bread delivery service or a fashionably-dressed woman - with her headscarf

And in the midst of all the commotion,
it was gratifying to see that we were not the only people entranced by
the market (to the point of stopping to take pictures!)

Breck had a heyday wandering around, as
he kept coming across all sorts of goodies to be used for wargames. He
