25/3/09 URBAN – The Markets

by

On Wednesday the 25th of March the Urban group went to the markets for the Big Day Out. We arrived at the school gates at an early 4:30AM and went straight to the fish market where we found out about how all the fresh fish is sold.

After that, we went to the flower market, which wasn’t open on that Wednesday but still had a few stalls open selling great flowers really cheap. Then we went over to the fruit and veggies market where we rode the Tutti Fruity train around the circuit and got to learn all about how the fresh fruit and vegetables are distributed. We also were given fresh fruits to try as the train went through all of the stalls.

By that time it was daylight so we headed over to the Yarra River where Mr.Barr cooked everyone breakfast. After a few more trips to various other markets we caught the train home at 12pm so that we could all catch up on sleep!
