Benjamin and I were walking down a banana lined alley of this neighbohood (Chickpet) after being very overwhelmed and crowded in the flower market. We walked by a small bar that was essentially a counter with liquor behind it. We both were saying how refreshing a cold beer would be on such a nice afternoon. We stopped in and hung out with the bar owners (some were kids!) and attracted a great deal of attention on the street. We joked that everyone up and down the street was staring at the American drunkards drinking a beer in their banana alley. I had the distinct feeling that being a woman, I probably wasn't winning any points hanging out drinking a beer in an alley. But...everyone was friendly and mostly curious.
