Marya and I took a little stroll on the beach just as the sun was setting, and this is what we saw.it.
Down the beach a few blocks from our hotel is what appears to be a waterfront park with brightly lit shops and food emporiums, Kind of a Coney Island sort of place, and the beach is full of people and vendors. No doubt they flee to the beach in the evening to escape the confines of the city of about 17 million souls stuffed into awful living conditions. for the most part.
