We went to the Jeddah fish market today!!! Steve drove us downtown this morning so we could buy some fresh fish to grill up this evening. Steve and his friend from Taif will come over tonight to join us for fresh grilled sea bass and shrimp and I will oven fry up some flounder..... then add some beans, cabbage salad, potato salad, and hush puppies and you have a feast. Here are some pix from the fish market......

We bought the sea bass from this vendor and he cleaned our fish for us to boot!

We really enjoyed this market..... something seemed a bit fishy about the place though.... tee hee!

The Jeddah fish market is located downtown at the Islamic Port.... here are a few of the sites we saw there and on the way....
