The local Guambianos still wear their traditional costumes, men and women, and a few of the little ones. I am particularly fascinated by people that maintain their traditional costumes, as one who has deviated from her natural and cultural heritage far and wide. Yet I am fully aware of the intricacies of visiting traditional people. How I wish I can turn into a bee, observing all I want yet leaving no trace....
The Silvia market was everything I expected, congenial and lively crowd, colorful costumes and produce.
The locals come to market in these colorful buses.
The Market.

Beautiful market scene! Do you haggle? Do you know what you're buying;-}
Enjoying the blog! The food sounds awesome & pics are wonderful.
I just glanced thru the photos again wondering if I could pick a favorite photo. They are all so awesome. I love the rocks interacting with the water BUT that market photo with the lush colors is just phenomenal. And ....well.... I have a bunch of favorites. THANK YOU so much for sharing your adventure with us. I love the photos. I love the narratives.
