Second Market

Near my home is the local market area called Second Market. It is filled with shops and stores and every 5th day many vendors come out and line the streets and sidewalks with their foods, fruits and other wares.

Fresh Fruit

Fresh Fish

Dried fish, shrimp and who knows what else

Kimchi and other dishes, ready to go

I am not ever sure what this is to tell the truth

It is so much fun to just wander around and see what is here. The girls are fascinated by the live fish, mussels, octopus and squid swimming around in tanks. The street food is fun to try, though we do stay away from the spicy stuff. None of us have a taste for chili peppers. While we were there, we bought several packages of kim (toasted and salted seaweed). My girls ate it non-stop the whole time we wandered around. I thought it was funny, and even the Korean people were amused to see little American children begging to eat more seaweed!
