I have a half hour to kill before I hit the bus, so I can do a short post. I never got my Curanto last night, but the meal was good. The restaurant was obviously a favouite of the locals as they trouped in and out all evening and many knew each other.
First photo. This is of my B&B , Erratic Rock 2 (Erratic Rock 1 is a dorm style hostel downtown).
It's a nice place, good breakfast with lots of hot water. It's a 5 minute walk downtown or to the bus depot.
Note the baskets out front - garbage cans. The owners fill them up and the municipality empties them. There was a garbage truck working the downtown streets at 930 pm last night. Many of the stores do a split opening, with a mid day closure between 1230 and 3 pm. I presume the point of these baskets is to prevent dogs from spreading garbage. There are still lots of dogs all over the streets here.

Gas prices: In Canuck pesos those translate roughly to $1.73 a litre for regular (93) to $1.78 for premium. Diesel is cheaper at $1.40 a litre.
Time to head for the bus.
