Another Day in Guadalajara




Now that we're settling into a daily routine, I thought I would share a few more observations as we make our way around Guadalajara. One thing we've noticed is that this city is filled with fountains: they're everywhere! Also, Christmas decorations are going up all over the place, and the Christmas displays are quite large. We saw a huge Christmas tree being built in the square at a shopping area; the thing must be 50 feet tall!

One of the local grocery stores has the little kids' carts that the girls love to use. You may also notice in the picture that the eggs are not refrigerated, and that's how it is everywhere. Can you say, 'salmonella?'

Oh, and I got a picture of one of the mop and broom carts I mentioned before. The attendant for this cart was eating at a roadside taco stand and left his cart in the middle of the road. Still don't get how these are a profitable business. . .

So I've done a little checking, and the word is that eggs do not need to be refrigerated for about three weeks after they're laid. By doing so, we are reducing their nutritional value. Interesting. . .
