Farmer's Market :)


                The farmer’s market was a highly interesting experience for me. I saw so many people with their families. There was food everywhere. A lot of the food was the same, but they all were grouped together. I noticed that more of the older people were around the vegetable stands. At the barbeque stands there were a lot of families. All over the market were families with small children. The children were in the places of music and fun foods. I saw very few couples in the place. In the area of politics, I didn’t see too much activity in that area. I saw a few older people peeping over the information. I found it interesting that there was a man standing at a stand representing women in politics. Most of the musicians were there to make money. They had their little hats and violin cases open and albums out for sell. One musician that really caught my attention was the man with the parrot. It was very amusing to see the parrot dancing. Then there were little children dancing along and he encouraged them to keep dancing and clapping. I saw that everyone was involved in the festivities. No one was standing around. We were questioned a few times because we didn’t fit in the market scene. People were curious as to why we weren’t participating in the festivities. Many of the people were beyond friendly. They talked to us and even helped us with our assignments. My experience there was very memorable; I got a raspberry tea out of it!
