Vegetable vendors have an early start. At the weekly farmers market in Mysore sellers bring their farm produce from villages well before dawn.

  7. Those long-green vegetable is Bottle Gourd. We call it 'lauki' or 'ghiya' in India. This link might help - http://www.lifemojo.com/lifestyle/health-benefits-of-bottle-gourd-lauki-ghiya-35979906

    What vivid photos these are...I felt like I was there in the market with you.

    Thanks for sharing this little vignette of a time and place close to you.

    I so enjoy stops like this.
