" Tabora "

From Ilaya yesterday, let's head further to Tabora, another strategical street famous for its dry goods, laces, local made weave baskets/fans, souvenir items
(wedding, baptismal etc ). There are tons of things to choose from.

Here are some small weaved baskets for sale but what's interesting is this wanted sign hanging around it.


and i never saw an abaca fan this big before... we call them pamaypay,
derived from the spanish word paipay.


and more straws...


and since we're experiencing intense el nino heat, i think straw hats are a must. ^0^


decorative giveaways, from traditional design to a more modern take like spongebob.


i don't know what this 10 peso hawker is selling...
is it the flowers? or the undies? or perhaps the socks?!...
nonetheless, it's affordable. ^0^


while walking, browsing, then taking pictures of this and that...
it made me realize something...
Nothing's changed, it's still what it looks like 10years ago, the same scenario,
the hot and humid day, over crowded, noisy and dirty but inexpenisve things you can't miss.
The stalls and the people might have come and go, and although it seems to have more negative insights,
i still love its nostalgic signature setting. ^0^



"G" i for great bargains! ^0^
