A cherished childhood memory: Memories at the market

I always remember when we were taken to the market by our grade school teacher, Mr. Dalip.  It was a glorious December morning and he felt that it was time to take my classmates, Trevor and Cecelia, and me to the market for a bit of an outing.

So, off we went in his little blue car.  We drove down to the San Juan market from our school and as we entered I remember being greeted by smells of veggies, fruits, and other smells that I could not easily identify.

Trevor and Cecelia had much more vision than me but that was just okay with me as they both described things to me and Mr. Dalip was only too excited to do the same.  As we walked along, vendors greeted us and when they realized that we kids were visually impaired, they went out of their way to be extra kind to us.

They let us touch and examine their produce.  They gave us all kinds of things, and one of them even lifted me into the air and spun me around.

You could tell that Christmas was in the air because everyone seemed to be in such a great mood.  They were singing, laughing, greeting each other, and just having a great time.

Ah, yes!  Memories of the market forever!
