The Krazy Kataloguers have been at it again describing the beautifully constructed temporary emporium as a "Mission Toy Stall"! The vendor is standing in the shadows of rosary beads while statues of the Virgin Mary and Crucifixes stand on the counter would be objects of devotion rather than play? Apart from all of that the children standing in front of the stall make an interesting contrast. The ones on the left are dazzled by the sunshine and are well shod while those on the right are unaffected by the sun and are barefoot!
