San Telmo
Today we took a trip over to the antique fair in the San Telmo neighborhood so Em could buy a few gifts for Christmas and watch some tango dancing. It is an older part of town where we had had dinner with Nacho and Kilo our last trip here. Today, we got a better feel for the area in the daylight.
Em was not let down with regards to the tango. We watch an impressive performance in the main plaza, which she took several pictures of and even filmed.
Tonight we headed back to Axel’s for dinner. Tonight we ordered empanadas and ice-cream and talked more politics. It is interesting: by standards back home we would probably be considered on opposite sides of the political spectrum. Here though, while you might not guess it by the debates that ensued late into the night, we really quite close on most issues. He was a great source to learn about life in Argentina regarding many aspects of the economy from tax-collection to regulation.
They’ll be on vacation when we come back to Buenos Aires on the 2nd of January so at the end of the night we told them goodbye and promised to stay in touch.
