Apoyando a un chayote

Today was a very long day again.

In the morning I went to IASE, which is a private Institute of Higher Studies in Administration, to search for material. I found more than 50 books and articles, so tomorrow I'm going back there to actually look into the material. The library is quite nice, by the looks of it it's like a public university in Poland.

Later I went to the seat of CEDICE Libertad, an organization that focuses on spreading the good word about free market in Venezuela. It's an underground movement; both philosophically and materially - its office is underground a building in the centre. In these elections they're obviously against Chavez, so they are pro Capriles. That explains the subject of this post; "apoyando un chayote" means "supporting a chayote". Chayote is a name of a very basic vegetable, in its taste a bit comparable to kohlrabi. This is how chavistas are calling their opponent. :)

Then in the afternoon I happened to spend some time in the centre of the city. The biggest achievement is that I found a t-shirt of the governing president (in the photo Eugenio which works for CEDICE and daughter of one of the other workers):

There are some interesting things in the centre. Such as tents of chavistas in every corner, dancing, singing, shouting and generally making propaganda for the president (the girl said she's in love with me :D. Too bad she's so stupid to be for the government):

The Chavez' ads are literally everywhere:

Bueno. Tomorrow I'm going to work long hours, so it's a good time to begin my rest!
