First of all…

Now some pictures from Venezuela. I'm writing this from Allen's house (another always gracious and generous host), and, having discovered that Rachel won't be back until Friday in Mexico am headed off to Chicago now to see her. Update schedule is still as planned though, so you can expect content to start going up tomorrow, including a new article from the Lizardman.
A shot of of the photo of the Avila Hotel where TransVision was hosted during a rainstorm, as well as a view from the front doors (and Emilio's zebra-striped Jeep).
A view from Emilio's balcony over some of the other homes in the area, as well as out over the city itself, which seems to just go on forever. These South American cities sure make Toronto feel small.
Emilio and I relaxing in his back yard in the left photo (again, many thanks to him for all the help in Venezuela), and in the right photo a goofy-looking picture of me with my friends Dolphin and Nostradkeitz who popped up from Valencia to visit.
Some photos driving around Caracas. I really should have taken more pictures…
Some photos driving from Caracas to the airport. Emilio said to mention that you can see his house in the rightmost photo — it's the green one. The city is surrounded by probably twenty miles of shanty-towns like this. I'm sure if you're ambitious you can go find them on Google Earth.
A view of the airport as we took off. The city is quite a way into the mountains, which of course would not be a safe area for an airliner to land, thus the airport is on the shore.
Thanks to Catertot for picking Jordan and I up at the airport and shuttling us around. I lost my digital camera cable in Venezuela, and luckily even though Office Depot here doesn't sell them, they were willing to give me one for free that they found in the back, I guess from a floor model or something.
