When we were walking to catch the bus in Esquipulas these two darling sisters wanted to sell me a scarf. They wrap them around their heads either with or without a braid. I asked if I could take their picture and said I'd buy a scarf from them. So they posed and I bought a scarf that caught my eye from the older of the two girls. She said it was Q35 (almost $4.50). Then the younger one looked at me with her gorgeous brown eyes and said "Buy one from me, too!" How could I resist? As soon as I selected one she said "This one is Q40!" I started laughing and said, "No, only 35." She immediately agreed, but when we started scrounging for change we could only come up with Q33. She was still happy. I know I paid more than others might have, but where else could I buy 2 hand-woven scarves for less than $9?!
