It all seemed a pretty casual affair, except for the collecting money part. There were a couple other guys as well as the three you can see just sitting around shooting the breeze and reminding the tourists to pay.
Which reminds me! None of these guys was actually smoking or drinking. And, amazingly enough, two days before my arrival in Guatemala the new law prohibiting smoking in public places went into effect. And with the exception of the occasional smoking tourist or drunk bum, I just haven’t seen a lot of smoking or drinking on the street, here or in Antigua. Wow is right. I was just thinking of the clouds of smoke that enveloped me everywhere in Spain. Umm, a study topic for a government grant.
