Day One

Found my airbnb, was greeted by my lovely hostess Aurora just in time for a breakfast of pineapple tamales and coffee with her and a couple of her friends, the place is great.

Exploring the city, found my way to Mercado San Juan, saw butchers selling iguana and skunk meat. The lunch special in the market was beans and rice, followed by menudo and then a couple chicken tacos for $4, the guy next to me told me it was the best deal in the city and then he paid for mine, hoping everyone is this friendly.

Walked through the National Museum which has been a to-do list item for years, impressive but all signage in Spanish meant lots of guessing as to the identity and significance of each piece, if I am on point then I'm pretty sure the statue in this pic is Steve the God of Haircuts.
