Fish Market



This is a typical fishing boat
Our apartment would be a little to the left of this picture

This lone fisherman had made a hat out of umbrella parts and duct tape

Most fish is offloaded from the boats in pans like this which are then drug around the dock area

Buying and Selling fish

Taking away the purchase

Ice being chipped and put into the hull of the fishing boat


I did a little bike ride this Sunday morning and ended up where many of the fishing boats come in to sell there catch. Watched the ice being loaded into trucks and being chipped for the fishing boats. Also watched the dickering and sale of fish to the local buyers as one boat was being offloaded of the weeks catch. Very fun to watch.
