Day 28 - Just Hanging About

This morning dawned with pouring rain as had been forecast. We were glad we were not going to be riding this day, especially as the TV was saying "Urgent Warning" regarding the storm around Buenos Aires.

We all just relaxed and did our own thing. I woke late, and then watched the various videos on YouTube, from "Itchy Boots" (Noraly Shoenmaker) on how to make short compelling videos using  my GoPro. They were simple but very useful, not withstanding her huge investment in GoPro and DJI Drones (neither of whom pay her for her "advertisement" or provide free goods!) - unlike the clothing and motorcycle gear companies who fully understand that having 2.3 million followes on YouTube has some value!

After the rain eased at lunch time, I decided to do a long walk in a loop up our street and right to Park St Martin (pronounced Martine) then down the 9 July main boulevard (which is over 100m wide) to the famous Obelisk that forms the centre of Buenos Aires then back up one of the shopping malls to try to find a "gaucho berret" without success, but I did manage to find a small Japanese sushi shop for lunch then went to an Italian place for dinner. 

All in all, a very relaxing day.
