My First Market Experience

This morning we went to the market. There was a lot to see, smell, hear, taste, and touch!

My goal was to buy a capulana. A capulana is a piece of fabric that almost all African women wear around their waist on top of their pants or skirt. They also use them to carry babies on their back.

                              They don't ever match what they are wearing and they are very useful.

           This is my first capulana...there were too many to choose from so I will have to buy more.


After I bought my capulana, we continued to walk around and look at all the things they sell. We went through the food market, the clothes store, the Payless shoe store, and the Pier 1 store. There was so much to see. The last market area we went through was the fish market...let me tell you...so SMELLY! I do not know how people stay in there all day everyday. Too much for this nose to handle! haha!

My mom is sending a care package so if you would like to send something or help her with some of the things I need, email her and let her know!

Thank you for continually praying for me and this amazing opportunity God has placed in my life.
