Back in Caracas I decide to visit the craft centre of El Hatillo, 15 kilometres outside the city. It's famous for its department store, Haansi, of handicrafts, all of which are massively overpriced.
In town I decide to follow Lonely Planet's Simon Bolívar tour of downtown Caracas. Most interesting of all though is a concert in the main square (Plaza Bolívar) protesting against President Bush's interference in Latin America. Bush is currently in Argentina and Chavez never misses an opportunity to rile his nemesis.
