The market



On the day we went into Daegu City - we explored the market area. People were crowded in the streets and there were tons of places to buy things. We passed several stands with fish stacked on tables. There were TONS of people buying fish (and other meat) like this. Daegu is a large city of over $2 million people. We did get ice cream at a Baskin Robbins and we saw stores like The Gap and Nike. The picture on the left were dead chickens that you have to get the feathers off of and then cook. I can't believe people would buy a chicken like that but they were buying them so it must be good! At this same stand they were selling puppies and kittens but not to eat, just to have as pets.

  1. Hi there Will!!!
    This market looks so neat. What else did they sell? Were the sales people aggressive? Ask your mom to tell you the story about her Grandma Frazier plucking a chicken when she was first married to Grandpa...if she doesn't remember, I'll tell you later!
    lots of love

  2. Hi Will,
    What did you buy at the market? Anything exciting? The chickens don't look very appetizing - I think I like mine from Kroger!
    Do they have lots of vegetables and fruits at the market? Different ones from ours?
    love, grandma and grandpa
