Tibet - Spring 2007  

Apart from the usual Tibetan souvenirs (necklaces, prayer wheels, etc.) the Mt Everest area has some special items. There are round stones that contain fossils of prehistoric snails, and there are giant pieces of "real" amber containing suspiciously well placed scorpions, lizards and snakes. This guy sold me one for really cheap.
