Fernando and the Beach Boys

(Karen McConnaughey, Shopping) Permanent link

Fernando happened upon a store in Chapala that sold huaraches. He tried on a few pair and finally found one that fit him just fine!

You've all heard the Beach Boys song, "Surfin USA", haven't you. Well, part of the lyrics go like this:

If everybody had an ocean
Across the U.S.A.
Then everybody'd be surfin'
Like Californi-a
You'd seem 'em wearing their baggies
Huarachi sandals too
A bushy bushy blonde hairdo
Surfin' U.S.A.

I don't know if Fernando's a surfer, but he's got the right shoes for it now. I think I even heard him haggle...it's expected, you know! Looking good, Fernando!
