Off to the Market....
The next day we woke up around noon and headed out to check out this temple down the street from their place and some of the wet markets.
It's probably not the best thing to do when you have a hangover but we managed to power through.
The markets there are very different from home!
In Hong Kong, it seems that it's not "fresh" unless it's still alive.....so you would see everything from live chickens to turtles.
It definitely made for some interesting visuals. In this picture in front of the orange tub were some poor little turtle lke creatures in a net that I wanted to rescue.
These are wrapped up crabs.....sadly they are still alive. You can check out a video on Sarah's blog to see how they are wrapped up here: http://sudsandsarah.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_sudsandsarah_archive.html
Just look for the October 3rd post....I'm not sure how to make it a direct link.
