Would stop at the 7 on the way home and get tropical fruit smoothies made in front of me, a shot of Havana Club if so inclined.
All for small money.
If only they would let boat people in (-;

Pretty much had the same replicated in Australia on my return, found veg and meat markets open at 5am, got the perfect bike, even found a place doing caphe sua da early am but then this bloody boat appeared and I haven't been on land since

All this in a country where the Gross Per capita GDP is 1990 USD.

basics, people....basics.

yes, not that simplistic but I think if the US tried they can at least get everyone some baby spinach twice a week? Being the greatest nation on earth and all...
