Buenos Aires




I went to Buenos Aires six months ago it is Argentina's capital city. I like it very much because it is different from Bogotá, it has a metal flower that opens in the day and closes at night, it has the Clock Tower, and has many buildings. My favorite place to eat was the Burger King located at the Santa Fe avenue that has 3 floors.
There is a place called Caminito. It is a street filled with colorfull houses and there is many people in it. Some make drawings or paintings and sell them. It also has a wax museum in wich you can see famous people.
There is also an important avenue called La Nueve de Mayo in which the famous Obelisc is located.
Another great place to eat is a magic restaurant in which you can see a magic show and choose diferent meals named after fantastic creatures such as Elfos and Unicorns .
It was a bit cold and very windy since I went in winter. I had a great time.

my experience with the blog
I think that it was an opportunity to learn more, and to be out of the classroom , I like it very much because it is an opportunity to express us and to say what we think and say it to other people. It is also an opportunity to know other people and what they think and what they want to express. It was very nice to because you can start making new friends.But I think that the process of commenting is very long because first you have to put your comment then you have to put a weird word and if you have it wrong you have to do it again but whwith an other weird word.
