It is cool to know someone and then later see them where they come from. I walked those streets for the first time while she walked them her whole life. She said the walk to the street market would not be very interesting but I could not stop being amazed and taking pictures.
The first thing I noticed when we arrived was the lack of bikes. The streets were no longer flat and there were more tiles and crushed concrete. Instead of canals, a river. A blue river. She left me alone just once. Within the first fifteen minutes I managed to fall in the river and then was nearly mauled by a pack of security dogs I mistook for friendly street dogs.
Many steps. Many sites.
