To the Market…

Juice stores We headed to one of the nearby markets to get a glass of fresh juice. 

There were rows of juice stores, all filled with customers, and they don’t seem to differentiate themselves at all as the menu were all the same.  So we settled at one of the stores and I ordered a glass of passion fruit, orange and pineapple juice. 

It took a while to be prepared, and when it was served, it was tangy and refreshing… Yum!

It is always interesting to visit the local market and watch the local activities, as I ventured on to explore the rest of the market.

And then I finally came upon some of the 200 variety of corn available in South America.  Check out the colours!

I have seen lots of guinea pig dishes on the menu (I haven’t gotten enough courage to give it a try yet!), but definitely not dog meat… I wonder if they really know the purpose of the sachet when they imported the item, and I wonder who buys it!
