San Telmo is the oldest barrio of Buenos Aires. Today we went to the market that runs every Sunday. It is a huge market, spanning almost a mile of streets.

La Boca was the next neighborhood we visited. Boca is widely regarded as the most "unsafe" neighborhood of Buenos Aires, but boasts the 'El Caminito', which is the street with the famous colorful houses. It is also home to the Boca Juniors, one of the most well known soccer clubs in the world - Maradona anyone?

Another great weekend in Buenos Aires! The heat continues, although it hasn't been horrible. Surprisingly my apartment stays relatively cool at night, even without air conditioning. However, I am excited for things to cool off a bit, and I'm told it will get a little cooler starting around mid-February, when the temperatures really get enjoyable (and right in time for my sisters to come to BsAs!!!). I hope everyone is staying warm as best they can in Minnesota. Sending all my love, I miss you all so much!
