meet Jorge!

haha

actually I don't know if that is his name

but this was his fruit stand anyways!

I went with Melissa today to the Mercado (market)

in Coxen Hole.

this is a very common sight in Roatan.

little fruit/veggie stands everywhere.

some people also sell out of the back of their truck

at first i didn't really want to buy from these vendors

but truthfully their produce is fresher then what is in

the grocery store most times.

i almost bought some pineapple but lately they

have been sour.

i guess there isn't enough sun to make them sweet.

a pineapple only costs about  1.50.. isn't that wonderful, but

not when it is sour!

so  i bought avocados to make guacamole

since Bob and I have been invited to a friends

birthday party today.

in fact i better go and make that!!

have a great day.

don't forget to eat your fruits and veggies!!
