Translation of implement in Spanish

We bought some sandals which cost us two dollars each pair. Then we visited the surroundings of the market where many store sold paintings, sculptures and books, some very beautiful ones.
I was very busy during the last month. I had to write some letters to find a new job. Thanks for your message yesterday evening! Where do you life in the USA? I have never been there, not yet, buy I will one day.
We stood there in the middle of the night in the middle of nowhere not exactly knowing what to do next and where we arrived. We had to look for a place to sleep. The village did not have any paved streets.
