Lights, Camera... And Inaction

Posted on 13:54 by Unknown
Here are a couple more photos along with video of the show we caught in Plaza de San Francisco the other night. For filming, I stood on a cast-iron "plug" (I have no idea what those things are called that separate the cars from the pedestrians) and I nearly fell off a few times, as you will clearly see at a few key moments. The rest of the time, I was fairly stable.


As for the "Inaction" in the blog title, that refers to our continued lack of hot water and repairs in our apartment. I've already submitted our first set of expenses to the building manager, and there are plenty more to come. We appear to have a permanently assigned room at the hotel Espacio Azahar.


The first video below is 10 minutes long and is what I captured on camera the first night when San Geraldo and I stumbled onto the show. We went back Friday night with our nephew Matt and his wife Lindy who just arrived for a visit. So the second video is the final two minutes of the show (which I didn't capture the first time around). You can enjoy both if you have time or just watch the final two minutes when the Three Kings arrive (and the building looks like a shape-shifter).
