Back at the house, we were sitting in the living room talking when Scott
jumped up and ran out the door yelling, "Arabber, Arabber! Come outside!
Bring your camera!" Nobody really knew what was going on. I jumped
up, grabbed my camera and ran outside. What I saw was a woman walking up
and down the streets yelling and knocking on doors and a man at a horse-drawn
cart selling fruits and vegetables. They're called the arabbers. They sell
food items door to door with a horse and cart..and have been doing it for
as long as anyone can remember. Read more about them at the website of the
Arabber Preservation
Society.
