Our first stop of the day was Cementario de la Recoleta where we paid homage to Evita Perón. I tried not to cry for her. The cemetery was quite a maze and her grave was not even mentioned on any of the maps provided to us. Strange I thought she was quite a big icon here.
Our next taxi ride took us to colorful la Boca where we had our first choripan ( a fat sausage trapped between two pieces of bread). There went at least 3 days of hard work at the gym. At this rate, Liang and I will be able to share clothes by the end of the trip. :(
Tango dancers dot the streets and I was able to get really cool candid shots. I'll share those later as all the pictures posted on this blog are from my iPhone only.
Then Susan suggested we visit the stadium where Maradona made a name for himself. In the end, I'll remember it more for the obstacle course to get there. You see dogs are free to roam the city. And with that you better stay quite vigilant of where you step. It's like Paris in the 70's all over again.
All right I better take a nap and have a snoring competition with Liang and Susan who are already sound asleep. Dinner doesn't start until 10pm or so. Ciao.

Nice shot. Must be Susan's work.
And don't you worry, Liang's mental power to resist meat is no stronger than his metabolism system. No way any of you can catch up with his size. But I do feel sorry for you guys about his gas passing. Even though most of times he's polite enough to give you warning before hand. Still, it's pretty deadly. ;)
I wish you were going to Nazca to check out the sand carvings that ancient astronauts used (well, that's at least what Erich Von Däniken said). But I'm curious to know if you see any Imperial penguins way down there. Tell us about the food down there also. I'm wondering it they like their sushi so close to Antarctica.
Too bad you can't find any colorful places there. ;*) Glad to see the D200 is out and being used!
