World Social Forum




The majority of us are setting out on Thursday the 19th. This gets us to Caracas a few days before the forum in which to explore and learn about the city, the country, the people. However, I do not know what kind of internet access there will be, so regular posting should begin on the 24th.

In other news, The main viaduct that serves to transpot people from the airport and elsewhere to Caracas has been closed due to seismic activity that has compromised safety. The (borrowed) gratuitous animation above depicts a likely collapse. This means that travellers will be treated to a more scenic route through the mountains. The Venezuelan government has opened a route specifically for passenger vehicles during specific hours of the day in order to accomodate the large number of WSF participants.
