1615h (CNX TIME) Next stop, the gemstone factory. This is the only factory which do not allow any photography or video in their factory premises... It is more like a gemstone or jewellery store. But it is damn huge...more like a supermarket....going to the leather factory next..

1645h (CNX TIME) Next, the leather factory. Not exactly cheap but there are some interesting leatherware...such as stingray leather!!!

Rows and rows of leather stuff... From bags to jackets, belts and handbags. My wife got something here though.

This is what my wife got... A stingray leather coin pouch.. The texture is quite interesting to the touch.. Notice the stingray icon on the pouch...cool huh?

1700h (CNX TIME) Last stop, wood craving factory, where they sell lots of wood furniture and carvings. Greeting you is a huge array of elephant statues and cravings.

Initially, we wanted to buy Aiken a small elephant craving from here as he has broken his which we bought from the elephant camp (within the 2hrs span). It was made of resin and not wood as we thought. Unfortunately, no elephant here caught his eyes..haha..we returned to the hotel at 1720hrs.

1930h (CNX TIME) We decided to try the food at the Chinese Restaurant (Sunflower Chinese Restaurant) at the top floor of the hotel we are staying in before going to explore the night bazaar again. The ambience and the view from the restaurant was fantastic. Here's Aiken enjoying his Pokey...haha..
