Walking home from #AlamedaPark yesterday, I walk behind this guy on a bike. NOT just any bike, but a #LowRiderBike: ORALE. Muy cool and looks like fun too. This is WAR playing Low Rider; released in 1975: https://youtu.be/-xTGrfs5TXM (at Palacio de Bellas Artes) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC9Ba7hnAA3/?igshid=87my4wo7tkvx

Sunday, I see this older man walking around asking for money, so I followed him a bit because of the cool clothes he on. I asked him to take his picture and he said OK; I did give him a tip. I asked him a couple of questions but he talked so so soft I could not hear nor understand him – I am a little hard of hearing myself. What a pair we made! LOL One of his buttons read: 100% Made in México. ORALE (at Alameda Central) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC8_oL8HS-t/?igshid=y85ip1oeech3

ORALE: Competition is stiff here in Mexico City for vendors selling. So this vendor of chicken, a “Pollero,” is trying a new marketing technique to sell. The sign reads, “In the purchase of your chicken, a #selfie with the Pollero.” ‪#‎SoloEnMexico Pollero #MxCity #CDMX #MexicoCity #EnElCentro #Centro #CentroHistorico#FansdelCentro #JesusChairez Jesús CHAIREZ (at Mexico City, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_1JbAcnzHh/?igshid=1ig77m4a82je5

Ever since I can remember, 25-yrs now, elder gentlemen have gotten together every day to play #chess (#ajedrez) at #Alameda park. Yes, the park is sealed off and closed except this one small little corner. 🙀 Serious chess players EVEN WITH the pandemic going on. I guess it is play until you --- DIE!!! #coronavid19 #covıd19cdmx #quedateencasa #stayhome (at Museo Mural Diego Rivera) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_MN86WH5yK/?igshid=759ik1zqovvb

#MexicoCity - Ran into this guy, a lone #organgrinder, when I went to the store. I usually pass them by – but not this day. As I stopped to read his sign, he holds his hat out for a tip – how I could not say no? The sign reads: that he cannot stay home, he needs to work for his livelihood. Thank you for understanding, Your Friend the Organ Grinder. PS: Note his homemade face shield - ORALE.👍 https://www.instagram.com/p/B_IaKRuHqYJ/?igshid=5vvvhip1s7w2

ORALE - Manuel Baumen, folk artist here in #MexicoCity, posted this and I wanted to share: Manuel says that even #ElSanto is asking the #VirgenDeGuadalupe for protection from the Coronavirus. ‪#Coronavirus‪ #COVID19 #COVID19CDMX‬ ‪#COVID19Mexico‪ #COVID19Mx ‬#Pandemic2020#QuédateEnCasaCDMX #QuédateEnCasaYa#AMLO #GOMEX #Virgen #Gudalupe #LaLupe#LaMorenita #Tonantzin #Santo #LuchaLibre #ManuelBaumen (at Mexico City, Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-bCfMWnlRD/?igshid=1bzn56xg9gtzw
