... the beach having a cold beer and hawkers will come past selling EVERYTHING you could imagine.. hammocks, cds, rails of clothes, wooden ships, fresh fish, paintings, sunglasses.. its just insane. All the teenage boys have converted wheelbarrows with a battery inside and a car radio on the outside as they come past blasting music and selling their copied cds.. its hilarious. The next minute a man with a wheelbarrow ...

... dem Rueckweg haben wir unsere Haltestelle verpasst und durften die 1,5 Std. Rundtour machen.

... about 10 large beers between the 4 of us and at one point I lean back in my chair and the chair breaks, oops, but at least it was funny and we all get a good laugh.
