Buenos Aires has the most bookstore per capita of the world. They stay open until 1 or 2am, and often have events at night. They are beautiful. TJ, you'd lose your mind!! The drinks are from dinner.Leer más

Viajero How was the wine? It’s nice to stay long enough where you get to know the locals.
Viajero The wine is good here! Yes, it's nice to have a huge group of diverse people (24) all doing the same trip. I only know one local, out city manager, Nacho. He's lovely. I'm told next month there's just 6 of us so far. If I spoke Spanish it'd be a while different thing.

Went out to dinner and made sure to snap pictures. It's very red meat centric here in BA and not always easy for me to find something good on the menu. Mine is the risotto with spinach and pecans withLeer más
Viajero No I have not heard of them. I just googled a pic. Yes, I've seen them but I'm avoiding sugary stuff. My only sweet treat is pistachio gelato. Cuz of the Italian influence here, there are gelato shops on every block!!

Cool cemetery! Evita was buried here after they found her again. Her casket was stolen by the military government and passed around then hidden in Italy for 20 years. Then a general was tortured untilLeer más

Went to a flea market (video), had dinner at an Israeli place, and met the artist of my favorite local mural that she was finishing. She didn't speak English and I don't speak Spanish but we had a funLeer más

Breakfast in a castle then a walk up a tower to see the rooftops and more domes. Then a fancy ferry ride across the Rio Plato river to a new country.

Well only did 15k on the Rambla. The bike wasn't good but got in a relaxing 2 hr ride. Maybe I should have stayed at a hotel closer to the beach. There was a lot of action on the Rambla further downLeer más
