One Man Band

We never know what we will see in this country.  Our camera has become my constant companion.  We went to town last week to our favorite cafe, SOZO, for lunch.  After a meal of cheeseburgers and fries, our order being taken by a deaf boy, the cafe hires those that society has cast off and helps give them back some of their dignity, we proceeded down the street to the barber shop.  On our way we saw a blind young man standing in the street playing music.  He was pretty good.  Some tourist were even donating to his cause.  Mark was able to get a decent haircut for around $4.00, deal of the day,  We then went to the Western market, which is not a deal and bought some of the things we like to indulge in, M&M with peanuts for Mark and tortilla's and chips.  No pancake mix again, this is the fourth week without.  Must be a shortage.  I would make my own but you see they do not sell flour here or at least I can't find any. They do have bakeries but none near us.  I can't wait to stock up when we get back to the states.
