Suddenly there are a lot more people in town. We went to get tacos al estacion this morning and a man with his two daughters sat down next to us. The older girl was facing away from us and talking to her sister. Every once in a while I thought I heard her speak English. But as soon as I would try to tune in to her voice, she would be speaking Spanish. One time I was sure I heard English and looked over at Luis to confirm. He nodded and said that they were visiting from the States.
It’s holiday season and everyone is coming home to visit. School lets out at the end of this week and won’t start again until early February. So for the next month and a half we will be swamped with relatives.
There are more cars in the center and more people walking about. Soon the tianguis (temporary stores) will be set up in the center. Lots of plastic items, lots of cookware, lots of clothing. And hopefully one booth of our stuff. Good quality, well built items. Not much more expensive than the competition, but it will last twice as long.
