the image currently at the top of the blog is looking north from my window in the first place I stayed in Caracas. you Plaza Venezuela (the red Nescafe mug atop the high-rise in the middle) and the teleferico climbing to the top of Avila near the now-vacant Hotel Humboldt.
here’s the view back in the opposite direction, riding up the teleferico (the day I went up Avila all you could see from the top was the inside of a cloud!).
