I was worried that weaving had died out. I love the fabric!

I love that you are in the land of the chicken busses. They are so cool and go everywhere

It tastes like my childhood. I couldn’t come up with a description so I asked ChatGPT:

“Mamey has a unique flavor that's often described as a combination of sweet potato, pumpkin, and almond, with hints of caramel and tropical fruitiness”

I’d say that was accurate

That looks amazing! What does it taste like? Big seed in the middle?

We rode them at some point, and I was surprised that they had little stools too create a middle seat in the aisles..
And indeed, everything goes on top or in those buses!!

I remember asking where to dispose trash we were carrying backpacking in Bolivia and people laughed at us and pointed to the ground...

Thanks for the thread, Bill!
Fortunately we don’t have it “ this bad” in the 🇺🇸, but with the homeless people we are getting closer :(

Not sure. I suspect culture... Never learned to dispose. It happens here too. I pick up and bag trash at local parks, and the park system has an organized volunteer system. It is better now than 15 years ago before they started the volunteer trash pick up. I noticed decades ago hiking the Appalachian Trail that there was lots of trash near trailheads and it slowly dissipated farther away for about half a mile. "There, the rule is carry in, carry out." I carry a whisk broom on my bike to sweep glass from the bike paths. Still, I get an occasional flat.

"People are such pigs!" Origin unknown.

Yup, Why? Don't people realize it is like crapping in your own bed?
