Today we took advantage of our between class break to go to the big market for the first time. We got to see all the fish, chicken, clothing, and daily stuff that people need to live. See the mangoes in the background? Its mango season now and yesterday I bought 5 for 50 cents. Today we bought three pineapples for a quarter and a kilo (2.2 pounds) of sweet taters for Thursday for 30 cents!
No rain this morning just heat. So we bought some sodas to go. Your choices are: stand there and drink from the bottle or get it "to go". Then you have your pop (for those of you from Ohio) poured into a plastic baggie and you get a straw. These were GOOD! Four sodas= $1.20.

Your such a smart shopper...with your to go drinks. LLL Re
What a novel idea! Was it hard to hold the baggie? The mangoes and pineapple sound wonderful. And you have something on your hair, not spiked, but maybe gelled?
I like seeing the pictures with the town folk. It seems like the mangoes, pineapples, taters, and sodas are pretty cheap. Does the city charge a rate for these vendors to be selling their products? How does that work?
