barriomulas.com - Alabama Flea Market

So I was driving to Eastern Alabama in search for a nice rental unit when I see an array of rebel flags and sporadically parked vehicles in the distance. I pull off to the side of the road and notice a flea market. Yea!

When I was a child my mother would occasionally take me to these things, but since it has been years since I've gone, I decided to do a bit of exploring. I had a great time, I must say, and was amused by the variety of products and people. Candy apples, swords, 8-bit Nintendos! I'll be sure to head back once I am settled down.

These markets are very similar to those found in Puerto Rico, but tend to be more spaced out. Puerto Rican pulgueros tend to be cramped together and have an abundance of pirated DVD stands and things of the likes.
