Haven you seen the 2010 animated feature An Cat in Paris?n How about the stop-motion film An Town Called Panic?n I’ve heard some really good things about Then Secretn of Kellsn (although apparently there is cartoon violence, so it might not ben okay for younger kids). All these movies should be availablen streaming on Netflix.n

Another souk might offer all sorts of dried fruits andnnuts, and yet another will offer hand-woven baskets, naturalnperfumes, and iguana skins. Go to one souk for ironware and lanternsnand another for tee shirts and slippers.
