Last Friday a friend and I went to a Silk Road exhibit at the National Museum. The exhibit itself consisted of some kind of museum-y thing (we didn’t go in), market-style stalls, and. . . . well, that was pretty much it. My friend and I walked around with expressions of shock and awe, however, because there were PEOPLE. SO MANY PEOPLE. Having lived in Canberra for a good many years, this freaked us right out and was far more interesting than anything else.
