Mexico just did its Independence Day ceremony. Big plaza empty b/c COVID. Doing the virtual deal.

This video is from last year, giant plaza (Zocalo) packed. Video ceremony starts at the 5:00 mark. In tonight's live version, it looked ghostly despite all the pretty lights, and inside it looked like the goose-stepping honor guard was going to kick AMLO as they approached. If anybody's been to Spain/Mexico, Madrid's main plaza looks tiny compared to Mexico City's zocalo. Like Mr CLEMENS said, the Old World looks all cramped and crammed vs the New World's wide streets.
