Fun Sunday
This morning we woke up early and got breakfast from a street vendor next to a highway, which I something I’ve never done before. They even had some plastic tables and chairs set up on the sidewalk and a romantic music radio station playing. What an atmosphere! We all ate cochonitas, which is like pulled pork on a sandwich and it was delicious.
Then we went to el centro, where the cathedral is. The cathedral is the second oldest in North and South America. Today they had a crucifix from Guatamala on display. The story behind the crucifix is that when the church holding it caught on fire, the entire crucifix was charred except for the crucifiction points. It was very interesting to see. After seeing the display we shopped around all the vendors and haggled a bit.
