1991-2000

Open-air market

One of many we saw in Hong Kong.

****

I finally found my print pictures of all the foreign travel we did while posted with the State Department to Yokohama/Tokyo (1991-95) and our first tour in Turkey (1996-2000), including to Hong Kong, China, Macau, Singapore, Malaysia, Israel, Jordan and Germany. Since we can't really do any vacation travel these days, it's a nice trip down memory lane to revisit all those places we saw so long ago.

An interesting way to set up a street market. V

Those markets are always so congested! I was there in 1996.

It's a very different lifestyle, isn't it? I saw some very weird food on offer in that part of the world!

Great street scene. I like the timing to capture the woman pointing towards the other people. V

Such colorful and interesting shots, a place I've always wanted to visit.

I've always loved wandering around these street markets in Hong Kong. This one seems to be geared toward mainly the locals. Is this a food market? I can't quite make out what the items are for sale.

I am always taken with the crowded scenes in Japan! There are certainly a lot of people on that small island.
