Adoption and US History: Local Market

May 8, 2009

Local Market

I found this small, local market down an alley half a block from our hotel. It is very interesting. Quite an experience! Fish that are still breathing and watching how quickly these women can butcher a large piece of meat, with minimal tools and space! ENJOY
