My first adventure

---

So I ventured out to the market for 10 minutes, navigated my way through the water tanks and around the gardens/flats/play area to the market, walked quickly around the market, decided I didn't want to be brave and buy anything, or attract any more attention to myself by taking photos, so walked back to the flat. It was only a short venture but I will get used to the heat and people soon enough and will definitely get some more photos 😊 I saw some bright orange waspy looking insects, a chipmunk (which was too fst to photograph) and lots of people. More photos to follow I hope! Otherwise the photos are on my facebook page.

Tricky thing, photos. I had good advice once - don't take photos of your neighbourhood too soon, so people don't start by assuming you're a tourist. But don't wait too long, or you'll forget what seemed interesting.

Thanks, I have got more confident walking around now, and used to being stared at, so will take some photos when I am not out on my own
