Sometimes the scariest thing is not knowing what is going on and not being able to find out. Seeing men walking on the street with guns (rifle in one arm and pistol in the front of the pants) makes you curious. WHen you are driving through and many shop owners have shut up and put their heads in you begin to wonder what has just happened or what is about to happen. THen you think am I overreacting.
In the end you think all I can do is keep driving and get past this.
So that is what I did. The hardest part though is arriving at my work, which is about 500metres up the road from the men with guns ( yes work has security with guns but thats different),and still not knowing what the heck is happening.
But now I hear that there may be some violence throughout the city later this week due to strikes. At least there is a reason and usually here when they predict violence it is less. As people don't go out much.
