Mexico Real Life Photos
Posted: Thu Jan 22, 2009 1:04 pmI thought I'd share some "real life" fotos with you. Not the pretty and cute things I've been sharing. But more real what you see. The following pictures are from the little town of Huatabampo.
Internet Cafe downtown
Bicycle repair and sales store
One of the busses taken out of our car window - it was full of people going somewhere
A produce store right on the sidewalk. We were parked right next to it and the produce sure smelled good. Could smell the celery and tomatoes and peppers..
A bakery
Some other shops - the one on the far left sells shoes, the one in front sells womens accessories
This is the wall around the high school
The kids that do the bagging in the big grocery store - they wear uniforms
Laundry must be done daily when washing by hand. Hung on fence to dry - right next to dirt road
Waiting for his master who was clearing an irrigation ditch with a shovel and wheelbarrel
One of the small towns we pass through - all the fences are white washed
The restaurant in the campground
Spending Sunday afternoon on the beach
It is a very interesting country to spend time in. But you have to be open to different things. It is not the US or Canada - things are done differently here. We are not worried about banditios or the army or the police. They leave us alone and any interactions we have had with them have been very nice. The people are wonderful and very friendly and helpful. But things are different. The campground was without water for a couple of days because one of the farmers tapped into the water line to water his fields and broke it. Oh well. Garbage gets dumped along side the roads as there are no landfills or garbage pick ups. But then the herds of goats come along and eat it. It is an experience every one should have.
BTW - I posted some pictures of Alamos the Magic Pueblo in Interesting Places.
