Guanajuato 3

Arcade.....................Doorways...............Banners

I loved this little stone and adobe breezeway; it surrounded the courtyard between the University and a cathedral. The posters were part of an exhibit on Japanese architecture. The doorways were part of an extended passageway that was inside/next to/bypassing the theater in the University; part outdoors, part indoors, it didn't really end. The big red banners were another part of the Japanese installation of this multi-national/cultural festival - very peaceful blowing in the breeze of this open-air foyer.


Typical rooftop.........lots for sale.........shy boy and bass fiddle

Laundry was drying everywhere - rooftops, alleys, windows - and why not? Sunshine was free and plentiful. Rooftops were also handy places for water tanks and dog runs - seriously! No yard? No problem! Stick Fido on the roof to watch the street and the front door. There were lots of colorful things for sale; cowboy hats not withstanding. This gazebo was smack dab in the center of the square in the center of town; the bass was completely unattended, except by the shy boy peeking from around the railing.


Mexican concert.......mexican wiring.......mexican security

The estudiantinas wandered the streets, gathering crowds of admirers; kind of drinking Pied Pipers. I hoped this wiring was temporary. Glass shards topped all the concrete walls - recycling!
