Market Day


This was market day in Boma. Donkeys transported goods to market from as far away as 20 kilometres. They rested and brayed on side streets awaiting the long journey home. A vibrant, colourful and noisy place the market hold about 100 make-shift stall.
People are everywhere selling everything from vegetables (carrots, onions, potatoes, tomatoes, etc), spices, dried fish, used shoes, clothes old and new and fabric.
Bartering is expected in the market.
It was a great experience to walk through and find the occasional bargain.
