We were invited to go to a place called 25 de Marco with some friends of ours. 25 de Marco according to what to our friends said, "You can buy and find pretty much anything that you want from counterfeit cellphones to crazy Halloween decorations!" Walking down the streets was quite the adventure! Here's a list of some things we saw:
Dressed up people with a statue like paint coating to them. Pretty much they look like statues that start moving and acting when you give them money. Let's see we saw a European, medieval looking couple, a guy that played the guitar, and even Captain Jack Sparrow!
Walking down the street, street vendors were yelling out really loud trying to sell their products. Some were yelling, water, water, water really loud, and others were throwing back and forth across the street some ball toy they wanted to sell.
I even saw an incomplete poster with a image of a guy showing some serious pex and a six pack abb, with a label of $10. And I was like, "they even sell six pack abs for a cheap price!"
To advertise a hand held back massage machine, one vendor was forcefully pressing the tool against the back of unwilling participants that walked by his "spot" on the street. I was also one of those unwilling participants but I have to admit I was tempted to go back and try out the product again (you know just to see if it was working right)
