Last year when I took the three boys over by myself, after a few days I realised that instead of looking at each stall, I would sit down (chair happily provided by one of the vendors) and they would show me stuff and I would just say no to the things I wasn't interested in and agree on a price for those I did want, No mucking about. And we would talk and I would constantly explain that no, I was not going to give them my pram when I went home, I still need to use it. The boys would be happily playing with other children and would keep bringing things up to show me . It was all so comfortable and not at all what I would consider to be touristy. It was lovely!
