Home Sweet Home
Buenos Aires is like New York meets Paris with a Latin flair. It's enormous, beautiful, congested, full (of cars, people, parks, cafes, restaurants, shops, sites...), busy but not rushed, and quite frankly - overwhelming. I was overwhelmed by the sheer volume of everything - whether it was people, goods, or choices. I spent days just wandering aroung, which I admittedly love. Just walked and walked and took it all in...stopping every now and again for a cup of coffee (sooo good), to people watch, to sit in a garden and litterally smell the roses, or to write in my journal. And of course, I took a few photos...
Tango...a family affair in La Boca
La Boca in all it's colorful splendor
Ah, San Telmo market...these two were tame compared with some others!
Yes, he was just as creepy looking in person, and no, I would not have gotten that close if he was real!!!
Creative advertisement for condoms...
Grafiti - meet art
DC has pandas, MD has crabs, and BA has bulls
Yes that IS Barney's head you see in the Rose Garden :)
They heard I was in town...
Crazy chuchi mall...mirrors everywhere...couldn't afford a thing, but the bathroom was nice ;)
Yep...that's just ONE WAY!!!
There is a law that limits dog walkers to 10....the sidewalks are land mines of dog poop!
The mothers of the missing are quite active in the community
Talk about a good spot for a tree house :)
OK, so BA was beautiful...but I missed Paraguay!
Back in good 'ole Paraguay....we began our summer futbol (soccer) tournament yesterday. Good times :) Rain held off until we were finished for the day, por suerte!
More to come soon... Hope you all had a fabulous Thanksgiving and took time to remember all the wonderful people/memories/things/etc....you have in your life.
Sending love and happiness,
Lor

Hey Lor!
I have been having a hard time getting in touch with you! I am on maternity leave and do not have your email on my home computer, I could not remember your blog page and just found it today after some google searching! I have tried responding to your texts but no luck...Please please please email me so I can write back to you and send pics of my baby girl! Lots and lots of love!!! Debbie
Hey Lorien!
Looks like you had a wonderful time in Buenos Aires! Awesome... hope to hear more soon. I'd love to visit, but we think that we might go back to Costa Rica. Flight prices are a little cheaper.
Sending peace and love....

BA looks awesome, and like you got to see much, much more than I did (though I was only there 2 days en route, and part of the first was lost to sleep recovery). I have one question - is it really necessary to "limit" dog walkers to no more than 10 at a time?? Is it possible to do more??
love,
Dad
