While our guests were here we visited the weekly Friday market in San Juan. I love this fascinating market as there are usually no "gringos" in sight (except for us, of course), and the locals are dressed in colorful native costumes.
This vendor had red chili peppers for sale.
San Juan is famous for its beautiful flowers. You can purchase a dozen roses for Q 8.00 ($1.00).
I bought some fresh strawberries from this vendor.
A line of tuk-tuks, small three-wheeled taxis
The native women wear handwoven blouses, and each town has its own unique costume. This lady is wearing the costume of San Juan.
We also bought a bunch of radishes.
This is the Catholic church on the town square. They were having some special event. There were streamers everywhere and there was a stage set up on one side of the square where people were giving speeches.
