Buenos Aires, Argetina

This is my second visit to this beautiful city. My last visit was in 2013. There are some kind difference in money exchange. In 2013, one US can change 4.85 Peso, on street Cambio could be 1 US = 7 Peso. In 2017, 1 US = 15 Peso by hotel front desk, on the street can be 1 US = 16 Peso. At street McDonald's, I can feel inflation. Food price is much higher than before. My experience from downtown to cruise terminal, 40 peso in 2013. This time due to several shortage of taxi on March 1, I could not stop one taxi on the famous grand avenue. After 45 minutes waiting, one taxi stopped and asked for 60 US. After negotiation, finally, US 20. That is about 600 peso. Food is no longer cheap. The only thing that is still the same - beautiful streets and buildings.

 La Boca is a neighborhood, or barrio of the Argentine capital, Buenos Aires. It retains a strong European flavour, with many of its early settlers being from the Italian city of Genoa.

 Women's Bridge

Puente de la Mujer (Spanish for "Women's Bridge"), is a rotating footbridge for Dock 3 of the Puerto Madero commercial district of Buenos Aires, Argentina. It is of the cantilever spar cable-stayed bridge type and is also a swing bridge, but somewhat unusual in its asymmetrical arrangement. It has a single mast with cables suspending a portion of the bridge which rotates 90 degrees in order to allow water traffic to pass. When it swings to allow watercraft passage, the far end comes to a resting point on a stabilizing pylon.
