I don't know where I am. We have been driving all day. The driver doesn't know either. I think we are somewhere in northern Yunnan province.
We stopped in some half-a horse village in the middle of nowhere* for some lunch (uninteresting, but sustaining noodles with unidentified frying objects) and as we were leaving I spotted a small fruit shop. This in itself is most unusual. We get fruit from supermarkets or market stalls. Fruit shops are rare, especially in the countryside.
This one had the usual apples, pears and oranges, but also
Small sweet mangoes. The equivalent of 65 cents per pound, @Thanks for the Crepes, but they will get much cheaper later to the point where they are virtually free.
Passion fruit.
Dragon fruit
Small fingerling bananas. Well, that's what I call them. The Chinese is 米蕉 - mǐ jiāo which literally translates as "rice banana". I've seen it translated as dwarf banana, but I'm not sure. 米 - mǐ is often used just to mean small, though. They also had Cavendish bananas which is what I bought, and pineapples which I didn't.
* I did ask in both the noodle place and the fruit shop where we were, but they didn't know either. Normal.
