Wyatt in Caracas
A Daily Photo Essay of My Journey

A few days ago I was put in charge of distracting Luis (local preacher) from his home so his friends could get a birthday surprise party thrown together for him. On our way back to his house, we came across these protesters. I joked with Luis that they were really gathered to celebrate his birthday, and he insisted I take this picture. It was a peaceful march. The ice-cream man in the foreground was turning a pretty good profit that day.
