Argentina: Buenos Aires - Day 2

Day 2: We took a walk through San Telmo towards Barracas & saw some amazing buildings.. Went into an amazing book shop carrying only art books... A quick stop-over in the main square (San Telmo) sorted our lunch-time & entertainment needs: I saw Tango performed in Argentina for the first time (the last time I was in Argentina it was as if they were all hiding from me as I didn't see one scrap of Tango!)

We took a walk past the Casa Rosa where there were people dressed in Carnival gear for a political rally as there are elections coming up this year:

Argentina: Buenos Aires - Day 1

Its been a wonderful 2 weeks. Geoff, Robyn & I got on the plane to Argentina on the 16th March. We have rented an apartment in Buenos Aires as a base....Day 1: After the flight, we dropped our bags & headed straight out in search of something to eat. We had a really great steak dinner at a restaurant in San Telmo...Veggies were lacking, but that's Argentina for you! :) The restaurant was amazing...the walls are covered in scribbles from people all over the world who have visited the bow-tie wearing waitor served Don Ernesto.
