Old pictures...SHOPPING IN THE TRADITIONAL MARKET

This was so crazy. When we first got here....like the second day they took us to this huge warehouse where they have all kinds of food. Anything you could imagine was there. People were staring yes...and saying hello, hello, hello like you wouldn't believe. But all the vendors were so nice, we even got try some different foods when we didn't know what they were. It was called a Dragons eye. There was this hard shell exterior thing, when you peel it off there is thing inside that looks like a peeled grape so you eat all of that but have to spit out the hard seed in the middle. Swear to God I would have never tried unless we were made. It looked like it was a dry cocoon... the butterfly flew away.
I think this was the dried fish area...pretty interesting...very smelly.

No idea.
No clue what we are looking at here. The girl in the pink is Kelly Fu who works in the office. She was our guide for the first few days and she was great! She takes care of so many things and even taught us how to say bathroom in Chinese.
