We were up for breakfast at 07:00
and to leave in the bus at 08:30, headed for our second visit to the Shrine at
Guadalupe. On previous mornings Anne had spied a nice white lacey scarf with
the image of Our Lady of Guadalupe, Juan Diego, and Pope St. John Paul the
Great on it being sold by one of the street vendors who would swarm around the
bus as we were boarding. It was always the same ones, and to my surprise, Pablo
said these vendors were legit, but on Sunday morning the particular vendor did
not happen to have the one Anne was looking for. He promised he would have
it “mañana” – and he did, so she
bought it. I ended up purchasing a 2’x3” banner of the image of Our Lady of
Guadalupe from him as well.
