Classic Tuxtla

This picture pretty much sums up up Tuxtla for me. Yes, it is one of the three wise men checking messages on his cel phone. Tuxtla is the modern face of a state that feels somewhat ancient outside the capital.

I took this photo today in a shopping mall. The best part was that my camera flashed and the wise man looked up quite guiltily and tried to put away his cel. Several bystanders were watching amused, none more than myself, however.
