More of the Market




The market is lined with fruit and vegetables, dasheen, plums, mango's, yams, plantain, bananas, tomatoes, cucumbers etc. Because the surroundings are very dirty, at first I did not buy anything from here, but now I will buy everything! I just clean it good when I get home! The only thing I won't buy is the fish...the smell is so bad...I had to cover my nose just to take this picture! There is another fish market that is much cleaner, that is where we buy delicious Red Snapper, tuna, and Dorado. We live on fresh produce, beans, fish and once in a while, chicken. Haven't had any beef since we have been here and I have not missed it at all!

Each time we buy mangos and other things from Magilda, she always throws in a couple of extras "For My Friend" she says! She has been working at that roadside stand for 16 years!
