La Boca

La Boca, Buenos Aires
Today we went to a suburb in Buenos Aires called La Boca, known for its colourful streets, tango clubs and football team. First we went to the stadium, wich was quite small compared to AFL standards, but they probably pack it choc-a-block, and judging by the +9ft, barbed wire fences that not only seperate the spectators from the field and from each other, it would be absolutely crazy during a match. We then headed towards the center where all the colourful buildings are, had a look at the markets and watched a tango show while we got a coffee. On the way home we got photos with a tango dancer who was a little past her prime, and probably a bit more than just a dancer (SEE PHOTOS!)...
Tonight we have tango lessons wich should be fun...
