Prague Street Market

No real surprise that we would find a market of some type, and this one was setup in a street sectioned off for this purpose.  This would not be of great interest except for the fabulous produce, especially fruit, that they were selling.  Notice how the individual fruit containers are setup, with a variety of fruit in each one.  They are made to purchase and eat on the spot.

They were also selling vegetables in some stands, and there were many other stands selling the typical items targeted at tourists looking for souvenirs.  I was struck then by how fresh and ripe their produce appeared, as I was on our trips to Italy 2 years ago and Greece last year. In the US we seem to have lost our sense of fresh, vine-ripened fruit and vegetables. Most of what we see in our supermarkets falls short.
