NUMBER NINE: What I Like about Mexico:
Sounds of Mexico's street vendors.
I love being away for a while and returning to my neighborhood in Mexico and waking to the sound of the gas cylinder sellers and their chants of "Ga-aaa-aaaas! El Gaaas!" In the nighttime there's the sweet potato man walking the streets selling his wares, his advertisement that sweet potatoes are only a few steps away from your door is the calliope sound of one note's crescendo as the steam builds up in the steam cart he pushes. It is one of the things I love about life in Mexico.
