Traveler's Market and SantaCafe

While at the International Folk Art Market, I saw a volunteer wearing an awesome green robe in the one of the Uzbekistan booths.
I asked her where she found it and she stated Uzbekistan.  She did recommend that I stop by the Traveler's Market in Santa Fe where I might find something similar.

It is a bazaar of artisans - some of which were at the Folk Art Market and we looked and I found a couple of things to buy.  One was a woven jacket that would be perfect for work.
I saw a ceremonial robe from Uzbekistan that was not for sale.
And hidden behind a bunch of other items was another more ornate version of the green robe that came home with me.
Here is a close up of the fabric and the trim.
The lining consist of a cotton fabric.
There was also furniture from China.
We then went to SantaCafe where we had brunch.  
The girls ordered wasabi bloody marys and I had the berry lemonade that came with one refill.
We started with the calamari appetizer.
And I had the lobster roll with shoe string potatoes.
I had a bit of Kim's angel food cake which was very rich.
We rounded it out the day by visiting a yarn store since the fabric and bead stores were closed and then to Whole Foods Market for more snack food for grazing.
