Hello again!
Here is a summary of the highlights from the past week (in the form of photos, since we have an assignment due tomorrow):
-Fancy coffees at Cafe Tortoni
Cafe Tortoni, the oldest coffee shop in Argentina
-Wandering around San Telmo
A sculpture of Mafalda (a very popular Argentinian comic strip character) on a bench outside the cartoonist's old home in San Telmo
The courtyard of a building filled with artist/artisan workshops and little bookstores. Most of them were closed for the day, so we'll just have to go back 🙂
Some windows.The doors and graffiti/street art of Buenos Aires photos will get their own post later on.
-A day trip to an estancia just outside the city for a few minutes of horseback riding, lots of food and drinks, traditional music, and the gauchos putting on a show.
-Returning to San Telmo yesterday for the sprawling open-air antiques/trinket/souvenir/handicraft market. More details, photos and videos will be in the next post.
