Sunday market

The little town of La Cruz de Huanacaxtle has a lovely market every Sunday morning.

The vendors all have to produce or grow the items sold.

This is a very upscale market for Mexico. The setting is along the side of the marina.

This lady designs and sews beautiful leather purses. Marg bought a beautiful green one!
This vendor had a lot of fabulous tablecloths. Hi showed us pictures of his family working at the looms. We bought one of these too!

Can you see the size of these prawns? Once we finished at the market we bought eight of these and 16 smaller (but still quite large) prawns. We put the big ones on skewers along with veggies and put them on the barbecue. The smaller ones became coconut prawns. That along with Mexican rice was our evening meal! Delicious!
