Markets

One of my favourite things to do on a holiday in a foreign country is to go to a place where the locals shop to get their groceries.  After leaving Rach Gia we took a three hour boat ride to Phu Quoc Island - which is actually closer geographically to Cambodia than Vietnam.  While on Phu Quoc we stumbled upon this amazing wet market and spent a good couple of hours just walking through and looking!


Sea-horses for sale, not sure if they are for eating of for medicine.



Dried sea-food.  The little dried shrimp were served to us a few times as something to nibble on before a meal, like nuts or chips! 






Ribbit!









 Justin stands out a little huh? Even though there is another Australian friend of his walking behind him!



 The butcher shop.



 Refridgeration - Phu Quoc style.



Chicken on tonight's menu? They are fresh!
