The Biggest Ring In The World!

(Wed, 13th) We tried a second time to find the souks and finally found it! It's really funny cos if we had just turned around where we were yesterday when we got a bit "lost", we would have seen it hahaha! We went to the gold souk and spice souk, but didn't hang around too long as it was just too hot! It's really not that embarrassing for people (well, some of the men anyway) to have huuuuge sweat patches here because it's pretty normal and you can't help it; saw a guy on the metro yesterday with his shirt literally soaking, he didn't look too good but I don't think he cared much to be honest haha..

We saw the biggest ring in the world at the gold souk. It was pretty awesome! So sparkly and shiny! Then we got a bit hot and decided to jump into a taxi and off we went to Ibn Battuta Mall. Ibn Battuta Mall is a themed mall with 6 courts; China, Persia, India, Egypt, Tunisia and Andalusia. The interior was absolutely stunning and interesting artefacts form the past were scattered across the mall in glass casings. Unfortunately we missed 2 of the courts, Tunisia and Andalusia because we were feeling a little tired from the souk adventure so we went back to the apartment..
