O is a grafter it has to be said!

I am having a fabulous time - sad that it is almost over!

The markets must be so fascinating in what they sell in both a good and bad way, not sure I would like seeing some of the things they sell. I’m really enjoying reading along.
I don’t think I am brave. I love travelling but there are places I wouldn’t dare to go alone. Despite its current problems, it is actually a very safe city!

And thank you for your lovely comment

Noooo. Coriander. Tastes like soap to me. It ruins my meals if I find some lurking. Especially in a salad 🤢

Great day exploring. It is fascinating to see the local traditions and the food markets although definitely not for the faint hearted . I’m not sure I could cope with either the fish or meat market.
Shame your lunch wasn’t cooked to your taste.

I miss read one part and was pondering on Peppa Pig being at B&Q but then re read it. 😂

The coast looks lovely, you definitely saw quite an array of foods on your walk. Shame about the WiFi especially as you passed the University as I’m sure O would have enjoyed a coffee break between his studies-hope he did well in his exams.

I’m not sure some of the stalls in that food market are for me. I also don’t get how the birds don’t nab those fish. They’d take them out of your hands in the UK!

I love coriander - my favourite herb 🤣

The markets really are so very different to my local ones! It is interesting to see that they really do use all of the meat - at one place they were chopping up chicken feet!

The public wifi now seems to work - very strange!

There really is an array of interesting food that is for sure! Most of it completely inedible as far as I am concerned
