Baden Powell Park

As a proud former boy scout, I was curious about "Parque Baden Powell"
in Miraflores, named after the founder of the Boy Scouts in the UK. I
checked it out, hoping there would be a nifty statue of the founder,
Boer War veteran, and all around nice guy. I've been trying to convince
Emily for years to name a son (if we ever have one) Baden, which I think
is a pretty good name, even if there's no neckerchief involved.

Sadly, no statue was in evidence, and the only indicator, a traffic
sign, had been vandalized. Still, a pretty nifty park.
