Tuesday Night Music

sunny 80 °F

I headed out to Parque Santiago tonight to catch the Tuesday night outdoors big band. Brassy Caribbean jazz (think Buena Vista Social Club) on stage, a couple hundred dancers crammed into the park in front of them.

Plenty of food options from the market stalls spilling out onto the edges of the park -- some Yucatecan, some Mexican. Semi-mobile food carts as well, including the one in the left of this picture selling elotes (corn on the cob with chile and mayo):

I skipped the food, though, having unknowingly ordered a monster frozen cappuccino and caramel drink at the coffee shop this afternoon. Hopefully by tomorrow morning, I'll be hungry again.
