Good Friday, you would think, would be a quiet day. But business went on as usual, although some stores were closed. We ventured out, taking a bus to the city centre but it never got there due to some road closures. So we found the subway and succeeded in getting to the centre.
People sell things on the subway train. A man came by and dropped a packet of tissues in my lap, as he did with everyone. No one took any notice of him. Two minutes later, he came back and collected all of the packets unless you wished to buy it and you gave him money. At the next stop, a man dropped a packet of chewing gum in our lap. And the next was a 'knock off' Mont Blank pen. As Peter said, 'That's a hell of a way to try to make a living.' But it is better than drugs or stealing.
