A very enjoyable series...you're right, the boats are teeming with activity, and it's interesting to see the clothing (some modern, some traditional) that the workers wear. Too bad it was so hazy that day, as I think it washed out the colours a bit.

Were they doing a 'bucket brigade' with the ice blocks?

Were they doing a 'bucket brigade' with the ice blocks?

Very much so, ice block after ice block has to be manhandled across several boats before it reaches its intended destination. I'm sure you would get anything like that level of cooperation in the West, as it would be every man for themselves I'm sure.
