This morning, 7.21.12, Saturday, we walked to the local farmers market in downtown
Quepos, at the marina. I wore Jessica's Gap 1969 jean shorts & my maxstudio white linen top, with Champion visor and Keen sandals. I purposely left all my shorts at home, thinking my 70 year old legs not fit for public consumption. But it is too hot & humid for the long pants I did bring.
The
flowers along the streets & paths are lush and colorful.
Below is our local bus stop.
Many of the local vegetables and fruits are so big, they look like they were
grown on steroids:
carrots the size of cucumbers
beets as big as baseballs
squash big as a guitar
radishes big as tennis balls
grapes the size of golf balls
bananas long as scythes
We've been here 8 days, never heard a siren or saw a police car so we were wondering where the police were. Today on our way to the fish market, we found them.
Would that all police rode bicycles! Love all the similes about the fruit! The grapes made me gape! And you look amazing in your short shorts.
ReplyDeleteLuscious produce photos!! And you're a great looking sweet yourself. ;)
ReplyDeleteSuch fun travels. We were able to visit Panama back in 2005. It was very hot and at the time of packing I thought I might prefer to cover up too, but I ended up wearing my pajama shorts a lot. They were the coolest thing I had for the waist down.
