Common sights in Mexico

We drove 132 miles today to La Salina at the outskirts of Ensenada.

I am sharing these photos because they are typical of what we see most everyday on this trip.

Every town has at least one Farmacia (Pharmacy). The names usually include a woman's name -- Farmacia Mary, Farmacia Diana, Farmacia Gloria. But the name most common is Farmacia Jesus, as you see on this photo.

Mexico has barren dusty landscapes and rich, fertile farming. This was acres of cabbage and broccoli. Closer to Ensenada, we began to see vineyards surrounded by olive and pistachio trees.

A few miles down the road will be huge junkyards of automobiles and farm machinery.

In the last photo you will see a housing development that was started and abandoned. Maybe someone has taken possession of a house and finished (or at least occupied) it. You see streetlights in the photo below. They are not common is Mexico. These probably do not work as thieves have stripped them.
