4/9 Market

This was the scene at the Market. It was quit an experience! On every day that ends in 4 and 9, there is an outdoor market selling just about anything you can imagine.........or not! We ventured out and saw some things we recognized, and some things we did not! Ms. Bonnie was amazed at everything, she is getting some Korean culture under her belt :) Umbrellas and people everywhere! As you can see, we do not look like the majority of the people. That in turn provokes many stares, and strangers touching the children. They like to touch the kids face and hair. Jannah and Jordan do okay with it, I think they are used to Koreans touching them and saying things they DO NOT understand!

Hats and hair accessories, we got some cute things for Jannah; but couldn't look long, because Jordan had to go potty. I got a little spastic, because I had no idea where to go. There's not a bathroom in every store like there is in the States. We did make it to an area with no people, and took care of the problem! After going potty, we did some more looking.


Fish, oh the smell of dead fish! Jordan was so excited about all of the fish, he couldn't keep his hands off of them!



This is the yummo fruit. The strawberries are the BEST! We did buy a fruit that was new to us. It was small and yellow on the outside, tasted just like honeydew; I am going to have to find out what it was.



Grandma and Jannah; they had been looking at produce.


Eggs anyone? This is how they are sold. 30 eggs cost 5000 won, which is about $5.



Yes, this is some type of bug! They have been cooked and ready to eat..........no, we did not try any!

I think you wanted to say, "We don't LOOK like the majority of the people here." Not, "We don't like the...." Are you picking up some Korenglish? :o)

I have always wanted to go to this market, but I haven't made it there yet. Take me, please!
