The city is hoppin' these days, more tourists then in many moons. I am not sure why, but it is fun to see. Oh, and it is hot! May is usually the hottest month, so this heat is early. I hope it brings the rains soon. I am acting tour guide for a friend and covering lots of territory and just checking out the scene.
One of my favorite windows.
As always, protests in the zocalo. The violinist was quite good.
The funniest thing about this shot of a shop on the main pedestrian walkway, Macedonia Alcala, was the laughter coming from the woman working in the store. I got to use a phrase I just learned, "No tiene verguenza?" "Have you no shame?" She broke out in contagious laughter.
This new place is on the south side of the zocalo, the side that is strictly oaxaqueño, not for tourists. Who knew Boston was famous for coffee. What's next? A Dunkin' Donuts?

Pleeez no Dunkin' Donuts! The Cinnabon is sacriligious enough!
Your pictures bring me right back to Oaxaca.

I don't think DD is on the horizon. I will have to go try this place at some point. Boston? Famous for coffee? Beans, cod, lobster, The Big Dig, maybe... but coffee?
