Anyone want to guess the name of this streeet?
Seeing as we are doing some traveling around Venezuela today I thought it would be fun for people to guess what major street this is - it is certainly not very recognizable for anyone who hasn't seen it in, say, the past few days:
If no one figures it out, that is ok. I'll post an update later with the answer.
UPDATE:
As has been guessed, this is indeed the Sabana Grande, the main boulevard through Caracas. Like much of Venezuela it was once one of the nicest streets in all of Venezuela. Like much of Venezuela over the past decades it had declined and was taken over by street vendors. In fact it was so full of street vendors that is was often unrecognizable. Now, with Venezuela's revival it too is now being revived. Another good acheivement for Venezuela.
