American Influence

Although Sahuayo is a small Mexican town that you can barely locate on a map, American influence is still pervasive, as these pictures show. Vendors sell American movies and magazines in the streets, and I hear American music blasting in the cars.

There are several American car companies on the highway (carretera), including GM and Chrysler. There's a Wal-Mart, and a McDonald's next to it. Most of the products in the pharmacy are made by American manufacturers: breakfast cereal, candy, toiletries, etc. -Kevin
