Oaxaca

We drove through the desert

image

To get to Oaxaca

image

Where there were more tacos and pinatas

image

And crickets without chili powder

image

Matt got a giant taco pizza thing

image

and was very happy with it.

image

It was difficult to eat

image

There was colourful corn above this door.

image

There is an old aquaduct on this street with colourful banners hung from it

image

It once fed an old fountain

image

Matt got a tamale for breakfast wrapped in banana leaf

image

This is the botanical gardens

image

Which are quite pretty

  1. The aqueduct and fountain are quite pretty.

    Are the crickets quite chitinous? I rather like eating insect flour baked into things, but I think* that the exoskeletons get stuck in my teeth like popcorn hulls when I eat them whole.

    *It’s been a while; I can’t remember whether I’ve actually had bad experiences eating insects, or if I just imagined it.
