e-gwa-soo (iguazu)

most of my pictures from this trip didn't turn out too great because my lens was wet, but they are still breath-taking just because of the beauty of the creation everywhere! the waterfalls were unbelievable...the entire park was just full of them...every corner we turned there was a new view of beautiful water cascading from a cliff. and all the sunshine and water vapor created beautiful rainbows that arced over the falls...arco iris in spanish!

animales

audrey-esque and under 2

last week while cleaning up my room, a baby in a black shirt grabbed my string of pearls...and a photo-shoot was born. :) these are all post-minor edits.

cupcake cognizance

let's just admit it...cupcakes a GREAT. they deserve an award...a holiday...a key to the city! These are from Muma's Cupcakes - Malabia St., Palermo Soho section of BsAs.

tennis shoe art and a pretty little face

while in Recoleta last week we stopped by the Buenos Aires Cultural Center and saw a neat display on painted tennis shoes that I took some shots of, and later while we were outside the museum, I got a couple cute ones of Naomes!!

"the mouth"

The port section of Buenos Aires is called "La Boca" - which means "the mouth" in English. I'm assuming this name comes from the idea that the port is the opening through which Buenos Aires has had a connection with the outside world for a good number of years now. This section of town is well-known because traditionally it was home to port laborers who used the left-over paint from the ships to paint their houses in a patchwork mess of a rainbow that makes for a popular tourist stop and of course, a picturesque stroll for someone like me. Here are just a few of my shots from my first visit. My favorite is by far the one of the two dogs sleeping...I'm uploading two different versions of it.

portugal please!

being in BsAs has been making me think about some of my other travels, and my visit to San Telmo the other day reminded me of parts of Portugal, which I had the pleasure of visiting back in February. it was beautiful!
