Our local market is around 1.5 kms away and we have been loving exploring it, the more we go there the more services we find. I am often surprised to hear amongst the cries of 'Muzungu! how are you?' the occasional 'Hi Tabby' or 'Madam Tabby!'mostly from people whom I have no idea who they are... even from very young children- the word spreads fast!
We buy lots of our fresh fruit and veggies at the market or else from children in the laneways- potatoes, tomatoes, onions, avocados and bananas are available just about anywhere. In order to prevent illness we have been advised to wash any fresh veggies in a bleach solution and then filtered water and so far it has been working well, of course anything that is peeled or freshly cooked is fine to just eat as is :)
