    As always, thanks for the link! But just to clarify: I don’t really think it’s the best flea market in the world, I was just poking gentle fun at the tendency of Armenians to think that they have the best of everything in the world. I am far from an authority on flea markets, but I think the Gypsy Market in Belgrade (don’t know if there’s a more PC name, but that’s what everyone called it) is my personal favorite.
