Gasoline fumes and roasting meat...aaahhhh!

MILKY TURQUOISE TRANQUILITY.
I just never tire of this view.
Aim well, and then JUMP!
behind their wheels, that's where!!!

11million? 18million? so where are they?

Everyone and every book tells you that this city is HUUUUGE. That's a severe understatement. The traffic is stifling. Everyone is out there on the roadways driving two cars each simultaneously. While dodging the buzzy-fly-annoying $!@*!#%*&% scooterguys. I am constantly amazed there aren't fatal accidents at every intersection. ;-)

Pros:"The exchange rate, cheesebread balls, and the hos-pi-tality!"
Cons:"The &%!#$^& traffic...hehehehe!"
In A Nutshell:"Not a "tourist mecca," and that's a GOOD thing!!!"

 Cristina , I just LOVE the way you describe all that... you drive people nuts with this , including me and I live only ten minutes away from this Creme Catalan...( it's called diferent here, can't recall...)

 I've never been to that part of the world, but the tips are great. I think I wouldn't risk 'feijoada' ( for fear of finding pig's tail or ear) but creme catalan sounds delicious. I'm sure I would forget counting the calories!
