on our second day, our plans suddenly changed (we are constantly reminded to expect changes) and we were taken down to a beautiful square. next to the square was a voter registration booth, where they had a digital photo/card station setup. i guess anyone in venezuela can register to vote, even if not a citizen? anyway, we jumped in line and about an hour later, after some great line converstations and an exchange of my passport and 2000 bolivares (about us$1), i was given my voter registration card for the mvr. i joked that it was bound to become "exhibit a" for my future enemy combatant/terrorist trial ("did you or did you not register to vote in a nation led by a known terrorist, hugo chavez?", blah, blah, blah).
whatever, it is a great souvenir. and for the record i am neutral on mr. chavez, and it is just a damn souvenir. for my n.s.a. and c.i.a. friends that i support with my taxdollars, please read this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Souvenir.
