Tourists

 
Today we played tourists. We took the camera out and went for a walk thru the town.

Here is Marco with Maria leaving our house.

Between our house and the center of town they have built a “hammock” or covered suspension bridge.

It’s pretty cool. It’s got some nice views.

We walked by the park.

Here’s Cooper and I.

We also walked by the Catholic Church, it was closed so we couldn’t go inside.

Then we went into the building across the street from the backside of the church. Marco used to play soccer here when he was a kid…. It didn’t have a roof back then.

Then we went upstairs to the municipality offices and took some pictures from up there.

There are lots of little shops everywhere, mostly selling food items. (There is no “real” grocery store here where you can wander around and look for what you want. Everything is behind a counter and you have to ask for it…. Which makes things a little more difficult. So far I have not been able to find butter, brown sugar, cream, hamburger, molasses, maple extract, and many types of cereal (all they have are fruit loops & corn flakes). I’m hoping that it is a small town thing and that when we go into Santa Rosa in a week or two that I’ll be able to find things there.)

We ended our walk by taking the stairs home. They are kind of an adventure in themselves. A little steep and it seems like every stair has a different height.
