There was a bakery making the same bread - cooked on hot pebbles and delicious. And the jube - open sewer - running through the village. The wealthy people live at the top of the jube and the poor people at the bottom. It gets more polluted as it goes along. I have a photo somewhere of a woman brushing her teeth with water from the jube. Vegetable vendors would get scoops of water out of the jube to sprinkle on the vegetables and make them look fresh. I had to soak all vegetables in disinfectant before we could eat them. I'm enjoying your photos. It's a small world!
