My sister and brother-in-law, Marcia and Irv, and friend Shawn met me in Buenos Aires and these are some randomly arranged images of experiences we had in the city. The first was taken during the mass at the German Lutheran church.
Musicians at the San Telmo Sunday steet fair.
The San Telmo parish of the Church of Denmark before services. After the mass we went to the basement and enjoyed a beer and the hospitality of the members.
Soldiers marching down the stairs to guard the Isla Malvinas monument near San Martin Plaza.
Congress building
Two friends, Andres and Luis, at a Parrilla for lunch (mostly grilled meat) after church.
Shawn, Marcia and Irv at the apartment just before they left for the airport and home. I hated to see them go.
Some happy dogs.

The idea of having a beer in the fellowship hall after church is an interesting one. (Of course, the Episcopalians would want cocktails instead.) I'll see if I can pass that along to the hospitality task force.

The city is amazing! Did you go to the Boca Museum?? It features slick, informative displays and a very well-stocked, blue-and-gold-dominated gift store. You can also have your picture taken with a bronze statue of Boca's most famous player, Diego Maradona. For the fuller Boca picture, book a stadium tour with your ticket, but for the real deal, grab tickets for a match. My buenos aires apartment was close to it, so I went there the first day and ended impressed!
