HTML code

When I first began blogging in May, 2003, I wrote the HTML code for my blog. Google had purchased Blogger in February, 2003, and Blogger at that time was very rough. Nothing like the smooth program that Blogger is now.

In order to get my blog to have "page turning" links [from one day to the next day], I would manually insert those links when I published my blog.

Years later, when Blogger had its own page turning links, I converted over to the blogger system. However, my old HTML page links still remained. And those links looked very ugly.

Lately, I have been going back in my blog to remove the HTML code that created those links. It's a slow job. But I am a patient guy.


Restaurante Paris Paris
12:30pm - Today I wanted to eat at a restaurant where I had not eaten before. I chose a pleasant looking open-air place named, Paris Paris.

I've ordered "fried fish". With the fish came sautéed vegetables, white rice, guacamole. [30 Quetzales $4.05US]

No begging
I've not seen anybody begging for money since I arrived in Panajachel. There are a ton of people trying to earn a living selling stuff.

Since I began eating my lunch, about 12 boys came by to shine my shoes. A couple of dozen people showed me indigenous craft items. A few ladies were selling woven cloth things.

A popular item to sell is a glass bead hummingbird. All these hummers look like they were made by the same person.
