President's House

In front of the president's house (a two minute walk around and up from here) six or eight youngish black men in diplomatic suits, across the street a uniformed guy with a submachine gun, police cars a block away in either direction, cars passing on the street, number 13 buses in each direction, me walking past in my black, hooded raincoat.

Wonder what dignitary was visiting.

Half an hour later, the motorcatde sirens. What with the president and prime minister, this is a very sireny neighborhood.
