Vietnam market

We've been back from Vietnam for a week now, and it already seems like months ago. We're settling back into Singapore life, but I just glanced at some photos and decided to share them. One morning while staying outside Duong Lam, we walked around this market.  All of the fresh fruits and vegetables were pretty standard, though colorfully arranged: dragonfruit, mango, peaches, grapes, melons, lychees, and a dozen other things that I don't know the names of.

The highlight was the meat table and the bucket of eels. The meat certainly looked fresh, but there was something questionable about cutting and selling meat in the great outdoors. At least she was wearing gloves!
 

I've only ever purchased eels pre-grilled and in plastic, so seeing them swimming was great. I wish I'd been able to grill them up on the spot.
