Our first Communist rally
We went to a park about 4 blocks east from the Hostal this evening to get some pictures. We had been to this park on Friday, and wanted to stop back and take pictures of the lake (one, two, three), the wildlife, and some giant palm trees (later). We didn't expect to find a rally for the Communist party of Chile.
There was some kind of a musical festival called Ojo con la Música Chilena going on. I don't know if the communists were just taking advantage of the rather large number of people there for the concert, or what, but they had at least 2,000 people at their rally. To me, the most interesting thing was not the number of people there, but the fact that they all knew the words to all the songs! I guess a band was playing communist rally songs, and the people in the crowd were all very enthusiastically singing along...
