Friends on vacation in Dominica - buying bananas
Some fellow divers were on vacation in Dominica
As part of the trip we do sight seeing, especially on a tropical island So a small bus & off we go With all the fruit etc growing we usually stop & buy stuff right off the tree/vine etc Well they wanted some bananas "How much for a bunch of bananas?" $5 a bunch That seemed kinda high for bananas - only .39-.69 a lb in USA So they haggled, guy wasn't budging on the price So they give him the $5 And he pulls a full BUNCH of bananas & hands them to them !!! They then realize the mis-communication "No - we only want this many (handful)" Ah - you want a hand of bananas They told him to keep the $5 & we all had some - gave him most of the bunch back - after taking some pics at the cantina across the way  |
