Around Buenos Aires

This post combines a few things we saw and did in Buenos Aires.

The Argentina automobile association has a nice little car museum, a big hit with car racing fans.



We took another free walking tour of the Recoleta area of Buenos Aires. Our guide, Sol, took us to the monument to those killed in the Malvinas war and explained what the war means to Argentinians.


We met with Damon, Mike's former student, who is vice-president for new media for Fox Sports Panamerica in Buenos Aires. Damon took us on a tour of the studio.


And, of course, Starbucks is in Buenos Aires. The prices are in Argentinian pesos ($); current rates are four pesos per dollar. When noting U.S. dollars, prices appear as U$S.
