I stayed in Barceloneta last year and liked the neighbourhood market there (it was also being re-built). <BR/><BR/>Much nicer than a supermarket you drive to - I love shopping in your own neighbourhood, where things are fresh if at all possible (not for me, sadly)Sallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06459567597804197579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14878297.post-71921872638857203722007-04-15T11:03:00.000+01:002007-04-15T11:03:00.000+01:00Hi everybody.Meg, markets are also included in my ...Hi everybody.<BR/><BR/>Meg, markets are also included in my favourites.

The common translation is «navigate is needed, live is not needed...»; some say however that the correct translation should be «navigate is precise, live is not precise...». Anyhow, navigate is compulsory...GMGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06775262251208390861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14878297.post-64410196946602978522007-04-15T08:37:00.000+01:002007-04-15T08:37:00.000+01:00ha very kewl - another continent!ha very kewl - another continent!Kalahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08577931145228477654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14878297.post-20538887301884192002007-04-15T05:48:00.000+01:002007-04-15T05:48:00.000+01:00I really envy you...Some wonderfully captured shot...I really envy you...Some wonderfully captured shots...thanks for sharing!Kalyan Panjahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00806730473428069202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14878297.post-10988508670929851012007-04-14T17:02:00.000+01:002007-04-14T17:02:00.000+01:00Nice pictures !!I liked the King crab & all pictur...Nice pictures !!<BR/><BR/>I liked the King crab & all pictures of Santa Lucia. :))<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing.Cuckoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09593822080382578122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14878297.post-6114771441728634452007-04-14T03:24:00.000+01:002007-04-14T03:24:00.000+01:00Thank you for that gourmet tour of Santiago!
