A small by the road butcher shop where products are hung out in the sun daily until sold.
By chance a meeting place for a cup of the local beverage.
Chickens, produce, everything is locally grown
During this journey we pass through the lush countryside of the infamous Luwero Triangle, sometimes referred to as the killing fields of Uganda during the country's armed struggles of the 1980's.
Local fish is being purchased in the hot sunny day
Bargaining is the word of the day to make purchases and earn money for the days work.

There is something for everyone.
A product Coffins, made by hand,  all of us hope we never need. Here Coffins are  found by the highway as you drive by.
Fish being sold IN ICE in the bed of the truck of this vendor. This was very rare to see any ice.
I don't know which was more dramatic.. the color of her hair the beautiful bananas she is selling.
Daily life in the coutryside of Uganda
Even with 40% unemployment everyone tries to make money selling something.
Try riding a bicycle with this many pineapples strapped to it. Looks like a sale too.
