Mango-nificent Music

Posted on 03:33 by Unknown
San Geraldo has been mixing up unbelievable salads for lunch several days a week. Sunday's included a smattering of lettuce as a base, spiced shrimp, sweet and juicy tomatoes, cubes of herb cheese, and the absolute best fresh mango. Just the thought of it today makes my mouth water.

SWEET MANGO (AND OTHER GOOD STUFF).

After lunch, and a brief siesta for San Geraldo, we went for a walk through the southern edge of the nearby neighborhood of La Macarena. Like La Alameda, La Macarena is known for being a bit more eclectic and counter-culture than our neighborhood. Lots of hippie-types, dreadlocks, dogs with bandanas, and general coolness.

CONTINUING ON CALLE FERIA.

We headed up Calle Feria, which starts as a hodgepodge of shops, restaurants, and churches with small plazas here and there, before becoming a busier residential and business street. When it was still that hodgepodge, we came upon a a singer and a guitar player outside a tiny bar. I recorded one song. The music was as sweet and fresh as San Geraldo's mango.

JAMMING AND HAVING A BALL.

The song is guaranteed to improve your outlook.
I could have stayed all afternoon.

FURTHER ALONG CALLE FERIA. SUNDAY DRIVERS.
