This weekend the streets near the World Trade Center were filled with people in bizarre costumes. For example, this fellow was having something to eat at a street food stand across the street from convention center.
No, it's not Halloween in March, but rather the weekend for an event called "La Mole" Convention. It's something like Comic-Con in the United States, and it describes itself as Latin America's largest convention of comics, fantasy and pop culture.
Alejandro was passing by the World Trade Center yesterday morning. There was a father and his young son (dressed in Superman pajamas) waiting in the long line to enter. When the dad realized that he didn't have enough money for the admission, the little boy was heartbroken. The people around them started chipping in to make up the difference. The little boy was literally jumping up and down with joy and shaking the hand of everyone who contributed. Very sweet story.
