A look at Rose Hall

The best part of Rose Hall is 4'10" "Geeta. I call her precious!


She took off the day to help show us around Rose Hall where she lives. She is helping us look for an apartment for the new couple missionary from Texas, the Myers, who are moving to Rose Hall in September. They are depending on us to find them a clean apartment with electricity, a flush toilet and AC. Can it be done? We'll see....



Here are the church which is bulging at the seams to hold the 100+ members that attend every Sunday, and...


Two of the four elders that serve in the Rose Hall Branch.



And here is where the four of them live... in this downstairs apartment!


Here's one of the many unpaved side streets,



And the entrance to the huge inside market. Expect to see just about anything inside for sale!





We walked inside and I just started snapping my camera fast because we had only a few minutes to check it out because we were busy transferring elders to their new apartments. We had two of them with us.



A little bit of everything.



Why does the purple eggplant always looks way better than it tastes?

I see okra, bora, shallots, pumpkin, celery, and that's all I recognize.

Lots of crazy stuff for the hair...



Sorting shrimp?


This is always my favorite part...the fishhhh! Notice how serious the women look. This fish business is serious business. More of those fishy ladies.

If I wanted one of those things hanging on the left, I'm wondering how I'd try it on...
I guess I'll forget about buying one.



Picture perfect red hot peppers and I don't know what else.






Greens...my favorite color!






Well, that's the end for the moment. We'll be back tomorrow to Rose Hall to check on an apartment with electricity, flush toilets and what else? Oh yes, AC!
