Got my first haircut. Saw my first beisbol game. Both were a lot of fun. Antionio - smiling in the pic above is from Vera Cruz but moved to Oaxaca with his young family for safety reasons. He runs a tiny barbershop that is probably the best one I have been in. It has tequila bar and great music. It was nice getting to know him a bit.
Tonight, as I was sitting in my room reading and watching the sunset I was hearing a loud speaker. I figured it was a baseball game, because I know the stadium is only 3 blocks away. So I packed up my camera and scooted down the street to catch some of the game. Well really watch how people here enjoy the game. Very fun.
And here are my Five Favorite Fotos from day 18 of my Walkabout...
Nature...
These trees are big and all over the two parks in my neighborhood. Great shade.
Beauty...
I know that Futbol is the "beautiful game", but watching this boy standing on his seat for every inning must help make baseball a very close second.
Fun...
There was a great energy in the ballpark tonight. The game was good. Home team, Oaxaca Guerreros (Warriors) - not so much. I did capture one of their few hits.
Spirit...
San Matias is the small church at the center (physically and spiritually) of my neighborhood, Jalatlaco. I walk by it several times a day. Every time the doors are wide open and there is a scene like this.
Just liked it...
My street. Busting out in color.
