Friday we left the hotel at 0745 and drove to Nizwa, about 190km inland to check out the goat market and various souks (markets). We made a detour due to wrong directions so by the time we arrived it was almost over. We did see the kids being auctioned though,and it was a very different way of selling to what we know. The sellers walk their merchandise around a raised circular platform while prospective buyers stop them to examine the product and negotiate. If the negotiation is not successful the seller moves on.
These tasty little items were commonly for sale in the "craft Souk".
