If you've got $1.25 and about three hours, you can catch the two buses that will take you west from San Salvador to Juayúa. Juayúa is the kind of quiet town where everyone walks in the middle of the street even though the sidewalks are perfectly good. It's small enough that whenever my hostel's two dogs follow me through town, half the people I encounter greet the dogs by name.
The town swells on the weekends when the food fair hits town. Food stalls and temporary restaurants line the main street and central plaza.
Fifty cents buys you a bag of freshly cut mango with a pinch of salt, a generous spoonful of chili sauce, and a third spice that I can't decipher.
If you've ever wondered what Zorro is up to these days, you can find him tending to his horses in Juayúa.
Looking for frog shaped bread? Got it.
But it's not just food you'll find here. If you feel the need to have your picture taken with a snake, you can do that, too.
Being a Sunday afternoon, church was in full swing.
If you're feeling too tired to walk, you can take a train through town.
The central plaza is the place to be seen.
And now that Holy Week is just around the corner, the town is starting to decorate for Santa Semana.
There's really not much else to ask for in a relaxed town.
