What can I say? Great avalanche today, people pouring out to see Rosales. It was hot, but it was exciting, lots of people everywhere. Rosales greeted us saying “que molleja is this rally!” a typical maracucho saying which refers to something big, grand!
And it was. I tried to get as close to the front as I could and it reached a point that was claustrophobic, you could not move in any direction, I only got to about ten or fifteen rows deep. Very thrilling and exhausting, I think I am dehydrated but wanted to post this quickly. People were happy, excited, friendly. Lots of young people, Rosales gave an outline of what he will do.


Rosales greeting the crowd as he first arrived, his wife and baby are on his left, daughetr on the right. The picture on the right was taken while Rosales was still speaking from the “elevado” that is under the road that goes to Mariperez


Overview of the stand where Rosales spoke from. I had troubles taking that picture without lots of flags blocking the view. Right overview from the TV stand right at the front looking back. It was jammed.
I have placed some pictures here, no comments for now, will post more pics as I process them, comments when after a little rest.
