waiting

This is Martina and Jorge sitting in the sunshine by the canal. They are waiting for the 'star-march' to start, which was a protest against the way in which people's living standards and employment rights are being reduced because of the financial crisis. There were lots of people, children and old people as well as the normal studenty types, and some really fantastic fancy dress. It felt like a good thing to do, even if it doesn't make too much difference, it feels better than doing nothing at all.
