... to be up wind from a garbage fire. I noticed that suddenly the voices got louder and that I needed to be careful where I walked. Then I realized...we were walking through an outdoor public toilet! With agile steps we made it and on the way back crossed to the other side of the street.

The pavements are full of anything but pedestrians which means walking on the road and risking life and limb. We found the old market but it seemed to lack the character of other places I'd visited and there wasn't anything that I particularly ...
