Stuff along the way

Playa de Carmen was an interesting place, the place to be seen! So a great place to people watch.

Cozumel in the distance

along the (very rough) road to Punta Allen

Punta Allen is another small fishing village at the end of the road know for world class permit fly fishing. (Permit is a fish… depicted in the statue)

Campeche another old city with old buildings

Something to ponder – why do we refrigerate eggs? ($2.00/dozen)

Local Starbucks – she dips coffee out of the blue jug and has pastries in the square box – Coffee and bread = quince pesos (see the classic 1970’s VW Beetle, they are everywhere)

Friday was local market day. Some people, professionals, have large multi table spreads while many people are just selling a very small quantity of something very random – a kilo of cracked corn (chicken feed?), a few vegetables, or a girl will sit on the curb with a pitcher of drinks and cups only to maybe make 50 pesos in 4 hours.
