SUNGLASSES ANYONE - MONDAY

Street vendors sell everything. We see sunglasses salesmen everywhere. The display is a large sheet of foam into which the glasses are stuck and carried about the city. Just before this man a man with a live snake passed our window, but we did not have the camera at the ready. They often sell puppies which they hold out as the cars pass. Rumor has it that they are taken from stray females around the city. We have purchased maps, pillows, and fruit from these vendors. They watch carefully, and if your eyes stray toward their merchandise they see it instantly and approach with intensity. So keep your eyes forward unless you are in the market. The street is you mall, especially during rush hour when you are at a standstill, or creeping along. We see them running beside slow moving cars conducting business.
