already booked the flight and hotel to return to Buenos Aires so off we went.\u00a0 We ended up venturing back to La Boca and visiting La Caminito- this vivid and colorful section of town were they have street dancers and everything from magnets to t-shirts for tourists.\u00a0 Defiantly the most tourist-y place we went so we didn&#8217;t stay very long but I got some of the best photos from the trip.\u00a0 The people who live here used the left over paint from all the ships that have docked across the street to paint the houses in different colors.\u00a0 It reminded me of the Caribbean.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"IMG_0970-w-logo\"

these guys really blew me away.\u00a0 I mean how many people can blow a conch shell and actually make music?\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t use a flash here, even though people in the audience were, I think
