Anna Roosevelt is drinking a gourdful of soup she was just served at the port market, Ver-o-Peso, in Belem. At the market there is a breakfast section that has huge cauldrons of porridge, soups, and stews. Market sells everything from dried lizards to shovels. The market has been in operation for centuries. Anne Hitchcock of NPS took pix; she was a member of the Field Museum's tour of the Amazon that Anna led in Fall 1995. |
