July 13

So there we were, sitting by the highway

Our overnight bus had dropped us off in the grey

An old woman stood there frying something in a pan

We bought the something, and sat there as the day began

We munched the fried something and sipped at milky oats

Cars marched their way to work, grunting through their throats

Breakfast by the road, as Cochabamba stirred into action

I nod at the lady. Road breakfasts - I can see the attraction
