Yucatan Rebirth

A couple of weekends ago, Indra and I decided to check out the Merida flea market. A friend had told us it was kind of interesting and she was right.

The first thing you notice when you find the thing is that it is right across the street from a very large and foreboding looking prison. If there was ever an advertisement to do the right things in Mexico, this was it. These pictures aren’t the best as they were taken with the video camera. Our Sony still camera is the on the fritz, but I think I found a place that can fix it.

The next thing you notice is all the food that’s for sale either being cooked, or for sale by the vendors such as fruits and vegetables, meat, chicken, fish, etc. And there are LOTS of stalls selling either new or used items. Much like the affair at the old Starlight drive-in theater on south Tacoma way.

We didn’t buy much this trip…it was sort of a recon run. Once we’re into the new house and know what we want, we’ll go back. Fun nevertheless.
