This morning after breakfast, I pulled out my map of Xela. I left the house at 0800 and walked north on 15 Avenida hoping to get a view of the volcano. This was my first clear view of Santa Maria. Usually in the afternoon it is hidden behind the clouds.
This is a Catholic Cathedral near one park.
I was hoping to find the zoo. I had read different articles on it but thought it would be nice to visit it. When I would ask people directions, they told me I would have to take a bus. Well.........I was not sure about that. I remembered the landmarks that Lisa and Kemmel showed me last Sunday so the bear and I kept on walking.
The zoo was OK but I really enjoyed the walking and studying. I saw the zoo in about 15 minutes and then studied on a bench. I had more fun watching the people, watch the animals.
I then looked for a place for lunch..............................I know Glenn and Neva are going to laugh but Pizza Hut was calling my name. I found more places to study as I walked back to Elubia's. It was almost 1500 when I arrived and it was a great day.
Tonight for dinner, Elubia placed before me a rice tamale and a pupusa. I could barely finish the tamale and it was wonderful. I asked her if I could save the pupusa for tomorrow and she did not seem to mind. There comes a point when you just have to say, "no more, please." It was just more than I could eat.
Speaking of rice...................Kemmel, I have my rice for tomorrow :)

Don't forget to cook the rice before you go!
Pizza is good sight seeing grub. In another year, Glenn and Neva will be craving Pizza Hut!
