One Last Look Back
We ended-up doing the majority of our actual purchases in one shop right next to the town gate. They had all the stuff we had on our list at competitive prices. On the way back to the hotel to check-out we made one last stop to buy my gargoyle. Once again, the girl at the front desk was friendly and helpful. Totally contrary to the reviews on TripAdvisor.com. She explained how the special hotel guest bus would take us right to our parking lot thus avoiding that long walk of the previous day. Looking like the Japanese tour group with our hands full of shopping bags we made our way against the flow on incoming tourists and went to the bus stop just outside the outer gate.
