Buying books... it got rough at times. Our friend on the left was essential on assuring we wouldn't get gringo prices... she started by going alone into the book shops, where she dealt the prices, only then we joined her in the shop... the prices started to increase... and our delicate friend said something on the following lines...
"if you continue with this kind of behaviour, I will end up throwing up on your books!"
And at the end we were all happy!


(as a prize for her great dealing abilities she got my favorite portuguese books, "blindness", by Jose Saramago)
