"What's is it?"
"I have no idea."
"Okay, let's do that."
Today was self-proclaimed adventure day, and Sydney and I went above and beyond our adventure calling. So much so that I'm not even going to write it all out, I'm just going to give the bullet points and then hit the sack because when I got home, my hands were shaking I was so tired!!
BsAs has a free bike program, you just register and then you can take a bike! You have to check in at a station every hour, but they're all around the city so we went... everywhere.
--left house at 8:30am, got back at 7:30pm.
--walked over 8 miles, biked 7 more.
 |
| BsAs has these cool biking lanes too! Look how happy we are. |
 |
| The park in Palermo is bellísimo! |
 |
| Might have to come back for those paddle boats. |
 |
| It's called "Rosedal" because it's a rose garden! |
 |
| The Obelisk on 9 de Julio--the widest avenue in the world (16 lanes!) |
Our only goals for today were to not get hit by a bus and to not get robbed. SUCCESS. We came a little close on the bus one a few times though...
 |
| We visited the Catedral Metropolitana de Buenos Aires. |
 |
| Swing break. |
Buenos Aires has 73 "Bares Notatables." They're bars that are officially recognized as being important, either in history, architecture, or culture. So naturally I want to go to all of them.
We stopped by two today! (pictures below) Only 71 more to go.
 |
| Cervezas en El Gato Negro |
 |
| Moscatos, medialunas, y un submarino en Los Galgos |
 |
| Palacio de Agua Corrientes (why aren't the government buildings in the States palaces??) |
 |
| Puente Peatonal Figueroa Alcorta |
 |
| Huge tree is huge. |
And that's not even all... we also went to the Fine Arts Museum as well, found a Walmart-like store nearish us that'll come in handy in the future, figured out how to get a bus home (because our legs would move no farther), and made it home in time for dinner!
Quite possibly the most I've ever done in one day in my life.
