Moonlit Night in Oaxaca

Musings from the Feb 2011 Chiripa buying trip to Mexico.

We are patiently awaiting the shipment from the February buying trip. It seems so long ago. One night near the end of the trip we climbed the stairs of our hotel to the rooftop patio. There are no lights, but the moon was up (full the night before) and we were greeted with this stunning view of Santo Domingo and the lighted street leading to it.

As we gazed from the edge of the patio out at the beautiful city on a balmy February night we looked down and were greeted with snapshots of everyday life. Clothes on a line, bottled drinking water, walkways; life. 

There were no people outside in these inner courtyards. It was late. But the visuals leave a sense of mystery; a longing to return.  -kl


UPDATE: the truck has cleared customs and is on its way!
