A tourist's weekend... Part 1

***There will be a picture post for this post as soon as the pictures are loaded***

So this weekend was full of touristy things that I have yet to do in Buenos Aires. Which, after this weekend, I feel as if I have done everything offered in the Lonely Planet handbook for Buenos Aires! This weekend was spent in La Boca, Feria de los mataderos, and in Belgrano going to an amazing pizza restaurant! First, La Boca… I went there on the 152 bus, of course saving myself a ton of money in cab fare! I then headed to el Caminito. It was really interesting. The buildings were really colorful. In fact, there is history behind the colors of the buildings. The port used to be really popular. They would paint the boats with different colors, and all the left over paint they used on the houses to protect the houses from the elements. It was really nice to see all of these places. It was so loud and there were so many people there. It was insane. The only thing about the area is it is probably one of the most least desirable places to live in all of Buenos Aires.

That night, I had the best pizza I think I have ever had. I could not tell you the name of the place, but I do know its off O’Higgins and Juaramento (Yeah, my spelling is as bad as my directions)! Then there was an attempt to go see a movie, however, there is not that much of a demand for subtitled movies at the moment which meant I could not go see the movies, because they were dubbed and I was not going to attempt to understand Spanish which I already barely speak!
