Return to the villages and stop at the Borobudur market
After this beautiful day, we decided to go and meet the local population by returning to the villages around the temple, especially the pottery village. Always the same welcome and smiles, enough to have a good time.
"It's so cute" as a certain Gad would say.
Proud to pose.
Here is at least one proof that not everyone is necessarily smiling (but as I said this mainly concerns the elderly)
Here we are again in the pottery village. This time there are more activities.
Family portrait.
Here's a giant leaf!
Artisanal work but on a “chain” and in quantity to supply local markets.
We had the same ones at home but they never grew that big...
Returning to bring the photos from the day before, the reaction was immediate.
This lady stood for a moment staring at the photo with a moved look... so did we.
On the walls of a school.
At first a little shy, the three friends then go on to have a great time.
Drying rice on the roadside.
On the one hand, a rather luxurious house.
On the face side, it's more modest...
Back to the market.
Here we are in the morning but yesterday afternoon the color of the meat did not make us want to eat it at all... (especially with the flies flying around...) we wondered if the meals in the restaurants and hotels in the area were local meat... until proven otherwise we have not been sick.
Spices galore, here you go.
By taking this series of photos we said to ourselves that we were good to go back to the photo developer, the only one in the area, right next to the market in fact, but the quality is not great, we can't blame them too much, I don't think the demand is very high in the area so in terms of investment it's just a cheap consumer photo printer.
Those were their table neighbors who insisted that I take their picture.
To get your bearings, to print photos, cross the road on the left, the market is just behind me on my right, and opposite is the bus terminal from where we will leave (the one where we were supposed to arrive at the base?)
Carriage parking.
Well now it's time to put all that away because the rest of the trip awaits us. In fact we were waiting for the series of photos from the morning to be printed.
We will spend another 2 hours doing the same route in the village this morning to distribute the new photos. This one was taken at the market again, seeing us giving the photos to their compatriots, this couple insisted on being photographed, the husband posed with a veil for fun, despite the seriousness of said pose.
