An Adventurous Afternoon

We have a free afternoon today and I just can’t stay at Ginger to waste my time. So, I went out with several others in the group and it was quit an experience. We got to Fab City and went to a different direction than what we have been going. Somehow, we ended up in a market that sells fresh fruit, vegetables, powder, and scent oils. The vendors kept asking us to stop in their shops. One thing I found very interesting is the way how eager they want to get our business. There were kids at the market try to get our business too. Many shops usually run within the family, which means that the store is passed from grandfather to father and to son. I stopped at a store and bought some scent oil, it smells really good. Omni told me that was made from an Indian flower named Champa. I got a pretty good deal on it.
After we walked out of that market, we walked to a street that is just off of the main street. Somebody on the street told Harvey that there is a craft market nearby, so we decided to go there. We kept on walking until this man came up to us and said that he will take us to the craft market. We let him to lead us the way. Instead, he took us to the shop that he owned to see the incense making. So, that was a great walk and disappointing. After we have seen the incense making, two other men in the shop showed us some therapy oil that could help you to loss some weight. Gene ended up with some sandalwood oil.

After that shop visit, we were all tired and hungry. We were trying to find out where we could get some American food. Harvey worked really hard to find a Subway. He have asked so many people and no one knows what he’s talking about until we went back to Fazil Silk and Saree place, the owner’s brother knows exactly what Harvey was talking about. We got into a rickshaw and off we go. We found the Subway. Gene is ready to have that sub.
We were just overwhelmed with seeing a Subway in Mysore India. According to the manager, Subway just open for about six months and that’s why not many locals know about the place. Alright, that's all the adventure we had in this afternoon and looking forward for more adventures down the road.
