Cobble Stone Streets
This is my street. In Paraguay many streets are made of cobble stone even here in Asuncion. At first it was odd for me but I think I am used to it now. It certainly keeps the speeding down as it really shakes the bones and rattles the teeth.
Some of the older streets are better made than the newer ones. I find them to be quaint and picturesque. Very colonial, I almost expect to have a Spanish Don pass by me on his fine horse.

I would venture that your street is relatively new, in the last 30 or even 10 years.
What a wonderful post! I like it.
Have a nice day.
Gringo, 15 years!
That looks like a nice quiet place to live. I wouldn't mind living somewhere like that myself.
Yes, what a rattle! I'm not used to the streets yet! Anyway, your street is lovely! Does it flood in the heavy rain?
Lovely to look at Rita, less amusing to drive over. Great to see where you live and it's really lovely.
