We´ve visited a couple of small but great museums; one full of the tiniest sculptures you´ve ever seen, and the other dedicated to civil war memoirs. Yesterday we ventured downtown and tried not to get mugged while weaving through the maze of street vendors, chicken buses and buildings. The noise alone was deafening, and we needed to get out fast. The lady at our hotel recommended bus #1 or 9, so what bus did we pick? #41a. Needless to say, we had a LONG complimentary tour and ended up who knows where-way outside of city limits-at dusk. Through sheer blessings, the driver found us a taxi and we got home safely.
Today I think we´ll stick with an organized tour and head to the beach with Chris´s group.
This is the interior of an evangelical church downtown. we´ve never seen a church quite like it-the exterior was a big dome, and it was gloomy inside with some creepy statues. but it was still nice to have a few minutes of refuge from the mayhem out on the streets.
this is our buddy pepito who lives at our hotel. he likes to bite ears and fingers, so visiting was risky. but he was just so cute...
here´s me and pepito. kevin thinks we look alike in this photo.
