Weekly Photo Challenge: Urban

Day 161 – December 30, 2011

What could be thought of as the polar opposite of Photo Friday’s theme of “quiet” (my response here), WordPress has offered up theme of “urban” for their weekly photo challenge.

The streets of Lima and its surrounding districts are chock full of tiny kiosks that sell all manner of snacks and drinks. For a few nuevo soles, a pedestrian can pick up an Inca Kola and a Sublime chocolate bar. However, the vendors of Lima are quite thoughtful and carbonated beverages and sweets are not the only items sold on the avenues.

For those business folk and other residents who find themselves walking down the street and realize that they need a pen, pencil, or a pad of paper, this person can help you out.

Just for those moments in the big city when you have to have a pen

Graph notebooks are available for sale also.
