Today was our last day in Buenos Aires as we plan to head out to Tigre tomorrow. The past few days here we´ve really put on the miles motoring around town. We´ve seen the balcony from which Eva Peron gave her famous speaches, the widest street in the world (16 lanes, fun crossing that one), tango in the streets, meandered through leafy parks where hired dog walkers hold onto up to 15 animals at once, went to the zoo, cooled off in museums and spent the requisite amount of time in cafe´s watching the stylish Portenos walk by. What a city. All of that and we´ve so far avoided stepping in dog doo....of which there are plenty in the streets.
Tomorrow on to Tigre which is a river front city off of which there are tropical islands that you can take a boat to, and picnic on. One day of not pounding pavement before we head off to Patagonia to walk countless miles in the mountains. Truth be told, I can´t wait to get out of the big city, and into both more rural and more temperate climes.
Hugs to all
Next stop....Southern Argentina!
