It covers 2-3 blocks in a local neighborhood. One of the bus lines from the Trailer Park takes you directly there.
I bought myself a nice pair of sunglasses for $1:30; an item not to be found in Canada, namely, a "Tauchsieder", and immersion heater for 2:20; some fresh strawberries (they are smaller than in most markets but directly from the field and full of flavor)...
I could have bought some colored chicks for Easter as well - see the video below. There are some entertainers, like the guitarrist singer right in the middle of the crowd (also in the video) and another one who hops the bus and tells some stories to the assembled passengers and then hopes for some panhandling pesos.
Here some shots...

If you bought sunglases, than they must be mine. When I went to Mexico and made a stop with the bus in Mazatlan , Dezember 1967. I went to the beach, took a swim, left my sunglases on the beach my towel and my sandals, and when I came back everything was gone.I had to walk the street barefood and they spit on the floor it was discusting and the floor was hot. I was so happy when I reached the little hotel next to the busstation.I had not eaten since Tijuana obly trank Jumex juice, and I met a nive American couple who invited me for lunch to a very nice place to eat realy well. By then I only had 40 Dollars left to surviv, till I arrived in Mexico City and found a living and a place to stay.
