From field to market

From field to market This week's pictures are actually about the transportation of food from the field to the market.  As I was looking for shots, I started to see some pretty funny scenes with this topic. I though this was a great example of a road being constructed.  They never close it completely off but always keep one half open. We thought the trailer was going to hit us as we drove by.  From the looks of the top, the whole left side is smashed in, slightly throwing the wheel alignment off. This bridge is in sorry shape.  There must have been several cases of cars going over the sides judging by the absence of guard rails. Here is another bridge but this one keeps smashing up the tops of people's cars. Make a quick turn and this load would surely spill.  Notice the bike with chickens on the right. I have never seen this before but the goats seemed to enjoy their ride. Here are the ladies pushing the day's pickings in to town, which is only another 10km away. The road transportation we saw was mostly localized and it seems that the long distance stuff went out on the river to the south.  Next week will be about gathering the crops.
