The Venezuelan Navy is in town. jeddy1989 (fluent in Spanish) knows basically every immigrant in the city from South America. Lots of those folks have been hanging out with the Venezuelans and taking them on tours of the city.
Fascinating to see what they're photographing.
The mall is BY FAR the biggest hit with the female sailors, while the male ones seem to be posing with cars on the street and local ladies.
. Love it.
This was such a nice treat this week. We lost the Portuguese, and the Icelanders. Even the Russians are coming less. I love when there's a huge group from one country visiting the city. It has a completely different feeling from the normal tourist season. It's like everybody gets a little possessive, almost like they're personal houseguests, and lots of people learn a little something about the country they came from, etc. Hopefully this will be the start of an annual visit or two for the Venezuelans.
This missus. The Venezuelans opened up their ship to free tours. This is what she put on, in the freezing cold, to go down. Best kind sure.
I LOVE her!
