If it's Wednesday - It's Tianguis Time

Strolling

Fresh, Fresh, Fresh

The Ajijic market is held every Wednesday and it's fun to stroll through and see what's there - everything from great "street food" to parts to fix your blender, shoes and clothing and lots and lots of remote controls for sale!

Fresh produce is a highlight of the market.  There's a lot that's grown locally. This is Rafael's stand and if you only need 3 scallions or 5 mushrooms, no problem.

Chapala holds their market on Monday and it's about 20 times bigger than the Ajijic market.  There's also an organic market held Tuesdays.  It may not be Alice's Restaurant, but you definitely can get just about anything you want!

Spinning Down

A few weeks ago, I spoke to an American who's been living in Mexico for a couple of years.  I told her I was still coming to grips with not having to be anywhere or do anything.  Her response was "Yes, it takes time to spin down."  I looked at her with the obvious question - what is "spin down?"
