There must be 2000 pics a day of people mimicking the stretched arms of the statue. I was not one of them.

I can’t tell if he thinks I am nuts or enjoys the change of pace by working with us. maybe both. After lunch, we were caught in the rain which turned into a great opportunity to see a little bit of this town. This tunnel […]
