After returning from a great treat of an afternoon at Rancho Zandunga to hear Gil Gutierrez and Pedro Cartas entertain us with music, drink and food, Michael found a close parking place on our street, Calle Umaran. Sometimes, parking can be very tight here on the week-ends and we felt fortunate to nab a good spot.
Upon pouring our first cup of coffee the next morning, a neighbor guy knocked on our door handing us a traffic ticket. What??? Apparently, that great park job was in front of a garage door on the opposite side of the street and is a big no-no to block here in Centro San Miguel. In addition to the ticket, the Policia took our back license plate. After marching down to the Municipal Building on the Jardin and plunking down our $171. Pesos, they gleefully returned our back license plate.
Lesson learned. Maybe the United States of America should take a tip from San Miguel. It sure would be easy to spot the slackers who did not pay their fine.
Life is never boring here in San Miguel.
