This morning I got up earlier than usual and went to the market to buy some vegetables. The market was very crowed and busy with nearly all kinds of goods on display. Some sellers were shouting at the top of their voice to attract the attention of the people. Housewives were picking out vegetables and bargaining with the sellers. After a while, I picked two fish, some fresh vegetables and fruit at different stalls. After paying the money, I went home.
