It has been an interesting
few days in Caracas. On Friday after school I walked down to
the Avenue Principal near my house and watched a calm
demonstration. People were sitting around talking or waving
flags. There were a lot of streets blocked and the traffic
was pretty bad. At one point, there was spontaneous singing
of the Venezuelan national anthem. Sunday I was able to walk
to church and get back without incident though there were
violent demonstrations in parts of Caracas. School was
canceled yesterday and then again today as a precaution
because of the uncertainty of the political situation. |
