Over the weekend, Marissa and I went off in search of a Sunday market in the Colosio. I had heard there was a traditional Mexican market somewhere in the Colosio near a church. We managed to find it on or around Calle 54 from 30th Avenue to about 15th Avenue.

Traditional Mexican markets sell just about everything including fruits and veggies, spices, tacos, clothing, electronics, household goods, and more. I generally don’t buy much, but always find something interesting.

Entrance to the market from 30th Avenue.

Lots of girly, pink stuff here.

No matter where you are in Mexico, you’ll always be able to buy a knock-off backpack. Tommy Halfager anyone?

I love the problem solving skills of the Mexican people. This lady has found a cheap and creative way of getting shade and storing for her handbag.

Piggy banks

Am I the only one who finds some baby dolls creepy?

Marissa and I were absolutely fascinated by this building along the way.

Traditional embroidery.

And modern rocker T-shirts.

I don’t why this guy brought his laundry to an internet cafe.

I had myself some shrimp on a stick. Very tasty, but I had issues with the shell that was left on. Mexicans eat the whole thing including tail! I’m so high maintenance.

Marissa was eyeing these cute skirts.

And these cute bras.

There was even entertainment.

We had a nice time, but I would have liked to have seen some fresh (organic even?) fruits and vegetables and spices. Luckily, we have DAC for that.
