While walking around Buenos Aires and doing some local discovery, I shot a few pictures.
The first thing that you notice, is the amazing amount of beautiful women walking around.
And in the local eating establishments… They’re just everywhere…
Then there is the amazing architecture. You can see so many inflluences from other countries. This is the customs building.
A very french looking Department of Defense.
This is a statue to Christopher Colombus
This is the Central Mail office.
This is the Presidential Palace.
Nice view of the changing of the guard at the Presidential Palace. It’s nice to see some of the traditions.
Next month are the Presidential elections. There seems to be quite a few demonstrations. And, the local Police force is always ready to keep it peaceful.
Making sure that they put up a nice presence.
These guys are good. Very amiable and I enjoyed talking with them. I didn’t feel any tension or animosity. They were there for a show of force only.
The demonstrators gathered in the local plaza.
The demonstrators came armed as well. Many had baseball bats and heavy sticks. I’m guessing they were there for a show of force also… Though I felt a bit safer behind the police line… No violence, just a peaceable demonstration…
