Makola Market. Heavy traffic and all quite chaotic and hot experience. Every direction I looked in, there was a sea of bright and vivid colours created by the clothes of the elegant ladies who were on their heads carrying their items to sell, fruits and even their baggage! These scenarios would've made for such lovely photographs. However I didn't feel that comfortable taking pictures here, especially not after a lady aggressively told me off for doing it and said I would be taken by the police if I continued! So from then on I kept the camera in my bag and occasionally took some blurry snaps from the dusty taxi window. It was enjoyable observing the local life on the streets and being amazed at the vendors trying to sell all sorts of products from fruits, peanuts to even bags of onions and square pieces of foam swarmed around cars stuck in the traffic. I was amazed by their skill of balancing their products on their heads while quickly running after a moving trotro to finish the deal.
