Is that a Pepsi in a GLASS bottle? My wife was in Haiti a few years ago and she said they use glass bottles there too. Its really odd to see since we're so used to plastic.

It really looks beautiful there. So colorful and ornate.

Not glass... I noticed only the beer bottles were glass. It was tough to find cold drinks. Even if it comes from a cooler, chances are the cooler is unplugged and the drink is warm.
