Buenos Notches!

The free walking tour of Buenos Aires was great. Our guide Sol was friendly and knew lots about everything. She freely answered any questions we wanted and stopped wherever we wanted on the tour. We were the only backpackers on the tour and went out for a chill lunch with our new friends afterwards. We are meeting some of the same folks this evening for a Boca vs. Independiente Futball match.

Last night, we had a wonderfully fun time at the La Bomba de Tiempo performance. It was 25 pesos to get in, roughly 8 usd. Its a group of 19 or so percussionists. We danced, clapped, swayed, jumped, tapped, yelled, sang, tried to avoid the smoke that was all around us, and moved with the crowd. They preformed for about 3 hours and it was a very interesting experience. Afterwards, we enjoyed the fun of trying to find the bus back to town. It was a long ride back into the city (we were off the map to go to the show) but enjoyable all the same.
