Market Day                                                                                                                                          


Actually every day is the open market day.  Batty goes a couple times a week this was the first time I went along.  Again I made quite a conversation piece or something to stare at.  Most have never seen a white person, foreigner.

You can buy about anything you can think of at these markets.


 
Interesting display of vegetables

 
Green Beans
The are a little more tough than ours.
Taste like ours when in the garden a couple days longer
than needed.
They often put them in a soup raw as a garnish.
 
 
Monks going through the market asking for money
or food.  The first monk had a box where people could
put money.  The silver containers are for food.
They stopped by me after I took their picture and chanted
something.  I think it was a thank you for what others had
put in their containers.
This was Monk's Day where people bring food to the
temples for the Monks. 

 
Eggs for sale

 
Live fish
 
 
Tapioca pancake
They are really quite tasty.  They fry them right
there on the spot. 
Green pancakes looked different to me so Batty
bought some.
