thanks very much, robin! there was nothing going on at all; they were just walking and talking, but you’d never know here! :-) val

it was pretty laid back! :-)) val

it would appear so, but they were quite friendly when they turned around and we exchanged pleasantries! :-)) val

well, i had a small point and shoot at the time, so they didn’t know! lol! actually had it stolen sometime later that afternoon, due to my own negligence, but amazingly got it back! never a dull moment, travelling in south america! …then again, these days, with my nikon and the big lens, i’m far more conscious of my camera on the road. all appreciate your kind comments, kylie! :-)) val

lol! it’s quite a dramatic street story, actually. never had to report it. had one of the thieves (a small woman) in my tight grip, as i was hollering that she better get my camera back if it takes all night, while a crowd formed and there came back the camera….really surreal experience. more details, of course, but that’s how it ended. after that i just walked, in a cloud of confusion at what had just happened and soon thereafter found myself having a glass of beer with an egg vendor in the middle of a street market! serendipity at its finest! lol! :-)) v.
