Shopping while you drive

Boys sell a bag of oranges (right) and roasted corn on a stick in order to reach the bus windows (left)
 
 
      We may not have drive-through restaurants in Tanzania, but that doesn't mean you can't buy food on the road.  On major roads here at cross roads or at speed bumps, there are often people there selling you oranges, roasted corn, raw corn, fish, and even live chickens!
In Dar, hawkers sell things as you sit in traffic.
  In Dar-es-Salaam, where traffic can be bad, there are hawkers at heavy traffic areas.  They come up to your window selling cashews, ice cream, shoes, toys, books, sheets, apples, you name it.  Sometimes, it's not so bad.  You can get hungry sitting in traffic for hours...

We even saw this guys selling live fish in an aquarium.  That was a new one!
