Fruit, fruit everywhere....
Today I realized the one thing I dislike about the city: People are forever offering you fruit. And it's rude not to take it. Now I realize that this would be a positive for most people. Even I find the fruit allllllmost tempting here, it's so colorful and fresh, but not tempting enough. Since I've arrived, I've been given the following from vendors or just so-called nice people:
5 cherries
2 apricots
2 dried apricots
1 unidentified fruit off of a tree in the yard of a church
I'm sure there are more that I've tried to block out
As a point of comparison, so far I have been given the following non-fruit items:
0 pastries
0 cheeses
0 simits (like giant bagels)
0 isla cakes (yummy chocolate cakes)
