Buenos Aires, Argentina - Take 2

June 4-7, 2009

The main reason returning to Buenos Aires from Iguazu, was to watch the Colombia - Argentina world cup qualifying game. This together with enjoying another weekend in BA, seemed like a good enough reason to go return to BA for a few days before continuing up north.
The game was supposed to be great: Messi playing, Maradona coaching etc.

Before the game, I loaned from somebody an Argentinian team T-Shirt (not the newest kind):


The game was overall not very good.. The atmosphere was nice, but not as great as I expected (the stadium which is the River Plate stadium normally was full!). Argentina won 1-0 which added a bit to the fun..

The weekend in Buenos Aires was great (like any weekend in BA is). Walking around the streets, going out, etc.

On Sunday June 7 I took a bus (about 20 hours) to Salta, Argentina..
