"Did I mention BEEF?" a Buenos Aires Travel Page by Dabs

Although all of my friends seemed to be much more excited about the fact that I was visiting Rio de Janeiro on this trip, I was much more excited about visiting Buenos Aires, the city with insanely cheap top quality beef that melts in your mouth, rich creamy gelato and pizza on every corner, sensual tango dancers and it's billing as the "Paris of South America", well, it just sounded like my kind of place!!!! And an added bonus, no dental floss bikini required ;-)

As we strolled the streets of Buenos Aires (don't believe those reports that I walk really fast), my husband next to me muttering under his breath that Buenos Aires was missing something, where was it's Eiffel Tower, it's Leaning Tower of Pisa, where were all the tacky gift shops, and I responded that perhaps the lack of those sorts of forced tacky tourist traps were precisely why I liked this city so much. Little here catered to the American tourist and you know that's pretty darn refreshing.

I just might go back again some day, just as soon as I recover from the meat coma! And I can fit back into my pants.....
