Miscellany


We had our best conversations with cabbies. This guy played his harmonica, no hands, while careening through the streets of Buenos Aires. After regaling us with "When the Saints Go Marching In," he played a Carlos Gardel tango tune and told us about how he played his harmonica at the Teatro Colon at age 10. He was awesome.
This is a fantastic sculpture in the Palermo barrio of Buenos Aires.

There are sensors in it that make it close at night.


Seriously. This was on a highway feeder road in the Buenos Aires suburbs.



Our last day in Buenos Aires, we whiled away a few hours in a bar in La Boca.
