Or As I Like To Call Him: El Presidente
So Vicente Fox, the President of Mexico has been in Seattle over the past few days. Apparently this is the first time a Mexican President has come up here. Anyway, I don't really pay too much attention to politics in Mexico but I do find foreign leaders to be quite interesting.Anyway, I was having quite the boring afternoon at work when I looked out my window and noticed a motorcycle cop drive by, and then another, and then another. I counted about 10 of them before I realized what was going on. I work on Airport Way, which is pretty much between Boeing Field and downtown. Everytime someone of importance, such as a foreign leader, comes to town they usually fly into Boeing field. Of course I pay attention to the news and remember that Mr Fox flew into Boeing Field the other day and was set to depart today. Anyway, there were cops blocking the street on both sides and no one was allowed down either side. Before I knew it there were a number of black SUVs driving by and I knew that inside one had to be Mr Fox. Of course I was correct as I saw him open his window and wave to the people out on the street with a big old smile on his face. I had my camera out and ready when I figured out what was going on, however all I was expecting to get was some pictures of black SUVs and cops on motorcycles. Had I known El Presidente would be hanging out the window of the SUV waving at people I would have gone outside. Oh well, here's hoping that I managed to get a picture that slightly resemble him.
Regardless, it most definitely broke up the monotony of the typical afternoon at work.
