The idiosyncrasies of Cholula


Despite my rants and being ready to move out, I really like living here in Cholula. It is a fascinating place with the charm of a small town. And I just love the way of life here.
Today, I stopped at this corner to photograph a convenience store with an English name: “Baldo’s Store” —which seemed so out of place. It already made for a colorful shot… just when a bright-yellow VW bug pulled right in frame!
I cross the street as the traffic light changed, and a man with his horse comes to a stop for the traffic light, and a young boy pointing to it to his mom. Immediately after, the horse is passed by two bicycles. Everyone going around doing their thing in their own unique way of transportation, and everyone’s happy :)
