Mar Del Plata, Argentina
here we are, they´re obliging me by playing tourist...traditional fisherman´s wharf, complete with rusting relics...
sea lions...boy do these stink. there weren´t as many of them as there tends to be cuz it was so hot...they´re all in the water coolin´ off. where we should have been. well, maybe not right there...
christina took me and gretel to the water tower to see the view (couldn´t give an impromptu lesson on backlighting...i shall never be a prof)...
then we walked up and down the coast. it´s sad to see how much of it is in bad states of disrepair...there was this one old hotel, that they were doing some construction inside so i could sneak a peek - so much more ornate, majestic, and elaborate than anything we´ve got in canada, and it´s completely empty. not being used at all...closed and boarded up. no one can afford to stay there, let alone fix it up...
we went one incredibly smokey bar who´s name starts with a "C" and no matter how many times i ask i can´t seem to retain, then the next night to this place the kids knew, antares. turns out lonely planet recommends it too. funny how no matter where i go in the world, i´ll always end up in the same sorts of places - microbreweries that play coldplay and the killers. good times.
