The Bead Market

Photos just don't do justice to the markets somehow... I think it is because it is not just one thing that makes up the scene... somehow to take it in you need to use all your senses... and a photo is so one dimensional... the heat, the almost thick air that pillows you, the flashes of colour, the sound...

Cathy is next to me writing her blog, too. She mentions how hard it is to describe it here.. She is trying to describe Ho. Would you understand if i say it is like hundreds of these roadside African villages all mushed together with an occasional city-like building looming up once in awhile? It probably doesn't say anything to you... but the market is like a village on amphetamines!!!
