Breakfast in Tijuana

22 05 2013

I ate breakfast everyday at the same place called Hotel Nelson which is off Mariachi Square in Tijuana and I would always sit in the same spot so I could see out into the plaza. My waiter spoke English but he appreciated the fact I made efforts to speak in Spanish. He would joke that I wanted the “ocean front view” but what I really wanted was some opportunities to shoot. While these aren’t the greatest representation it starts to show how vibrant of a city that Tijuana is and I’m excited to be sharing more as I go through and edit. So enjoy some of my “ocean front view” as I ate breakfast.

The Gun Slinger

Granted, its an accordion but the way he has it slung across his back and his stance just remind me of a gun slinger out of the Wild West.

Wow – Post 400. Just realized that!

The General

Was in Washington DC to meet a friend of mine and had the neglected Canon 5DMKII with me so I happened to see this statue and the rest is history.

Dalena

Saw the ship from the walk along the harbor. It was the only one with activity on it. This marina versus all the others is where the working fishing vessels dock at. You can also catch a glimpse of the USS ~~Enterprise~~ Midway in the background.

Around the Taco Stand

19 05 2013

The taco stand or food stand is ubiquitous around Tijuana and they are cheap and delicious to eat at. When I first went to Tijuana tacos were $1 but now they are up to $1.20 because of the economy and I can live with that. They are made fresh right in front of you and have lots of choices for toppings. It’s interesting watching who comes around the stands and at night you get a bit more flavor for lack of better terms but everyone is there for one thing, tacos!
