La Boca Juniors

Ok its been a while, so we are writing this in Bolivia!

On our second day in Beunos Aires, we strolled around the city and checked out the japanese garden!! At last we had some sunshine! We looked around their Palemo Soho district which was just like Soho in the London, amazing shops and local markets. I (Emily) bought some sunglasses (well i resisted for so long to not buy anything and eventually I caved in), everything is so cheap here!

That night we checked out one of the famous steak restaurants and oh my god what a steak! This was proably the most expensie dinner we had but i was worth every penny.

BA is a very european city. Many friendly faces,loads of travellers and SO CHEAP! We will be definately coming back if only to take advantage of the shopping.

The following day, under strict instructions from my brother, we managed to get tickets to go see La Boca juniors play! What an experience! After a pizza and beer with the rest of the group we headed for the match with the masses of supports in their blues and yellow shirts. It was a huge event. The stadium a massive concrete block, not sure safety crossed their minds when building the stadium!

The match was fantastic, a little intimidating at times but i think they have the best football chants ever, there were no supporters for the other team (hmmmm not surprised), and best of all they won 2-1!! Liverpool and Man U would stand no chance!!
