Mum met me in Buenos Aires, and we certainly ate and drank our way through the city! Overall, BA was like any other big city: different neighborhoods, a diverse food scene, museums and parks, but nothing too spectacular. It's been said that Buenos Aires is the Paris of S. America, but I finally came to the verdict that BA is amazing for those who have never actually been to Europe.
We explored the different hoods, went to Puerto Madera to walk across the really cool bridge there, went to a museum in Recoleta, walked through Palermo, went to the palacio in Retiro. We went running most mornings through the many parks, around lakes and polo fields and gardens. This made us feel better about the multiple bottles of wine and amazing food we were consuming each night :)
We took a little break from the city and made a 2 day excursion up north... see "stop 6"
