So this morning a group of us went downtown to the market area, Mercado Cuatro, to try and find some inexpensive furniture and home accessories. It was a little crazy. Different streets specialize in different stuff...there's the furniture street, the shoes street, the food street, the electronics street, etc, etc. It was somewhat overwhelming and going with a big group is definitely not ideal, but you potentially could find anything down there..no problem! If only I had found what I needed....oh, and the bus system is totally great here. I mean, the buses are a little rickety and when you mix that with some of the cobblestone streets, it definitely makes for an interesting ride, but overall it's just like buses anywhere else. Why do people always make it seem so scary???
These pictures definitely don't capture the whole effect...
And the ride home (single file bus ride)
