This morning I decided that M and I should do my language study in the market. We started by catching a ride on a horse cart at the end of my road. Our first stop was to go to the post office so I could buy some stamps for my postcards and check the mail. With that mission accomplished, we headed to the market. I love walking around and looking at everything and greeting the people. When we passed a lady that I had talked with on another occasion, I decided to buy some tomatoes and cucumbers. From there we passed some ladies cleaning fish. They offered to have me help them clean the fish. I thanked them but declined. From there we went to a stall operated by M's cousin. She offered us a seat so we sat for a spell. I was able to talk to her a little bit and greet many people who came to make purchases. At one point I even became a seller! The lady sitting next to me who was selling fish had to leave for a few minutes and she put me in charge. I actually sold a few fish for her! (Thankfully, I didn't have to touch them!) After a while we decided it was time to leave. I purchased some peanuts on the way out before catching another ride on a horse cart to my house. I actually boiled a few of the peanuts as soon as I got home and they are pretty good.
