The Mexican president, Peña Nieto, came here to Vera Cruz

The Mexican president, Peña Nieto, came here to Vera Cruz. They put up this HUGE Mexican flag!
You probably can´t tell how big it is in these pictures but it was pretty cool. the problem is, the traffic was HORRENDOUS.

I saw him from a distance but he was surrounded by marines so they wouldn´t let me give him a pamphlet of the restoration:( I tried!  I had to settle for giving my pamphlets to the marines themselves.
