Plaza de Panchos is a world renowned indigenas market devoted to a mind boggling array of clothing, craft work, musical instruments, ceramics, souveniers and food. It's most famous though for its weavings hanging in a dizzying labyrinth of color. The sites, sounds and aromas are complex and intoxicating. The central market area overflows on Saturday's into the surrounding streets for blocks with central area of town confined to pedistrian traffic. We spent hours wandering through the maze of stalls and actually didn't buy anything. Not that we didn't see many things we would love to have, we just didn't want to add anything to our already excessive baggage. Plus it was a wonderful place to "people watch." We have so many pictures it's hard to pick just a few but here goes. The blog now has a feature to post a slide show but we have to figure that out and hopefully that will allow us to post more photos per post.
