We are living in the quaint old barrio of Xochomilco in Oaxaca. (Joch-i- milko) which is a residential neighbourhood with cobbled street and lots of graffiti and some political statements. The one above is a chapuline (grasshopper) which they make into tacos and eat here! And no… we haven’t tried one!
A little local protest – ‘we are united in opposition to Trump’ In spanish: “Estados Unidos” means United States and “Estamos Unidos” is we are united…. ( a bit like joke that needs to be explained however trust me – it’s cleverer in spanish!)This one is more like art in the street than street art. There was a waiting truck but we were fearful of his “bits”
Our neighbourhood…some are cute, others more provacative, but all are bright and well done.
Translates as: Life starts where reality finishes. God never dies. I’ll leave the meaning to you to decipher!

Love the street art!
Thanks Brenda. Can’t wait to get back and catch up on girls lunch gossip! (That’s if I haven’t been dropped off the invite list.)
