,
This little donkey must have a hard job pulling this cart the bock wheels hub bearings have broken up so the wheel is running on the axle. and leaning on the cart this will act like a brake on all the time, made even harder when it is loaded with half a ton of bagged lemons,
while in the market i took this photo and wondered if the hard working donkey also had the lemons on its cart this day
.
lmost every street in luxor has a government subsidized bread shop each piece is 5 piastres,
there is one hundred piastre's in one pound ( LE) so for one pound they can have twenty pieces, they buy so much of it half I reckon is thrown away or kept to feed the chickens and the rats,
nice fresh Filia bread tomorrow it will be like a rock,
This is the only horse and cart allowed into the market street, delivering the flour,
Its the lock up good job the crisp boxes have been invented, or it would be open house,
fair play The owner sells the produce mainly mineral water at Egyptian price, that's 2.50 le
per 1.5 litre bottle, most outlets sell to the tourist anything up to 12le.
the shop is situated direct across the street from the entrance of Luxor Temple,
also has its own tourist attraction. notice the woman in the doorway, one euro photo one dolla.
its market day again and that's where I am heading, its a month since my last visit so maybe there will be some new seasonal fruit and veg in.
It was nice to see the council had tarmacadam the area around the old house,
also good to know this lovely building won the case over the demolition, not many have
lots of fish on the market all are caught by the local fishermen ,
This is the fish the kingfishers and herons catch,
then we have the spices to go with the bread and fish.
= chicken food
onions, garlic and okra,
The Buffalo cheese is a local delicacy and eaten with the bread
