Tourists and Transportation
Thought I could combine two industries for the weekly challenge.
The tourist industry: here are tourists who've just come off the ferry and are about to catch the bus to Ganges, the main town on the island. Tourism is very important to the local economy. You can tell from how this group is dressed that it was a cool morning, but the sun is coming out and hopefully the afternoon will be warmer so they can enjoy their visit. On Saturdays, tourists often come on a day trip to take in the famous Saturday market.
The transportation industry: since 2008, we've had bus service between the three ferry terminals and town. Before that, any foot passengers who arrived on a ferry had to get a taxi or hitchhike to town if they weren't being picked up by family or friends.
I could almost get away with a third industry here, the beauty industry, with those colourful hairdos on the two young women. :)
Extra: colour coordinated shoes and dress of one of the women
