The market

After walking to the various stores around town, we head to the market to buy fresh fruits and veggies.  This is the part of the market that is always set up and ready for the locals, not tourists.  I prefer shopping here, since no one calls to me to buy their souvenir trinkets.
Many things are for sale in the market,
like clothes, shoes, toys, and food.
Julia is my favorite vegetable vendor.

Elena is ready to carry bags full of the
produce we will buy.
Finally, we arrive back at the car to unload the bags
from our aching shoulders.  I never knew how
heavy fresh produce is!  The store behind me is our
small grocery store.  They have carts... hurray!
