So, the Mortenson's, who have been here since last July, took us all to El Mercado de las Americas to buy fresh fruits and vegetables and it was awesome. Dozens and dozens of vendors line the street on either side with their produce displayed in beautiful little piles. The street itself ends up with mostly pedestrian traffic and enough room for one car to drive down it - however often cars try to go both directions and in Guatemala the pedestrian never has the right-of-way. It was a fun day to go see this and the produce was really tasty - straight from their own little farms. Our favorites are the mangos and bananas...la fruta y vegetales son mucho mejor! Aren't the colors beautiful!

Oh how I miss the markets in Chile! That may have been the best part. I LOVED the fresh fruits and veggies. Wonder why we don't do something more just like this here!
