Argentina is a lot more than just Buenos Aires. Down below is a collage of different places I’ve been to in the country and for this month’s theme, I wanted to portray some places else than Buenos Aires.

Happy New Year **2009** to you all!

Picture taken in La Boca near the little street of Caminito. Street performances, mainly tango dancers, fill the touristic streets of this neighbourhood.

Typical kiosco view from the back. This one is located at the corner of Arcos and Echeverria as indicated on top left hand side. Reparto a domicio means “delivery service”.

The city’s portal says the following about the Congress:

It is the venue of the Legislative Power and it lodges the Senate and The House of Representatives. The project was in charge of the Italian architect Víctor Meano; however, after his death, the work was completed by Julio Dormal. It was built at the end of century 19th. Even though, it has been used since 1906, it was not finished until 1946. The dome of the Congress is the longest in the city.

Picture taken outside the subway station Carranza, line D, in the barrio Belgrano.

Inside the Bar Cronico in the barrio Palermo. Here’s another picture I took inside that place back in 2006.

Picture I took in La Boca.

Repost of an old picture I took back in Dec. 2006.

Lately I have been unable to post as often as I would like to, many reasons why: too busy lately, in need of wandering around Buenos Aires to fill in my archives pictures, etc.. Which I will try to fix in 2009 ;=) I’ll be off on vacations for a month starting this coming Saturday. BA daily will be on hold during that time. I’m not sure if I’ll post occasionally during this time or just wait to start again in 2009. In any case, I wanted to wish all the readers of this blog a happy New Year. May 2009 be an excellent year to you all!

Paseo in las Cañitas.

Oh my god! Look at the size of this tarta [cake]. This must be the biggest cake I’ve seen. I have no idea what it’s called, so if anyone know its name and what it has inside, please share the info with us :=)

In El Tigre, using the commuter passenger boats and motorboats are the favorite way to travel through its web of inter-connecting rivers and streams of the Delta. Inside those streams’ nodes, you’ll find many houses. This is one of them. The people can reach the boats by the little bridge in the front.

Night in Salta. What you see in the background is the Church de San Francisco.
