Avenida Bernardo O'Higgins, Santiago
The avenue named after a illegitimate Spanish/Irish
hybrid first ruler is the center artery of the city. Down it's middle
is a thin strip of parkland filled with flowers and statues. I was
wanting to use my hitherto unused cheap Discovery Store 3D Camera, trying
to capture the person on the left waving the strip of cloth in circles,
when I noticed that the drummers in the middle were waving at me. Embarrassed
at being seen using a cheap camera (I'm a professional, you
know:), I quickly waved back, sauntered off and melted obliviously into
the mass of humanity that is Santiago.
