Floralis Generica
In the United Nations park in Buenos Aires, there's an eye catching sculpture called Floralis Generica, or the Generic Flower in Latin. It was designed by Eduardo Catalano, an Argentinian architect who trained in the US. The 18 ton sculpture opens up during the day and closes at night. By the way the park is sponsored by Swedish TetraPak

Fiat 500
A girls dream!!
Last time I were in Buenos Aires I heard about this fantastic tango shoe shop, but I did not have time to go. Today I went! It is not easy to find it and it's even harder to leave. To stairs up to heaven....thousand of different shoes. You just sit down in a small beautiful room and they will hand you the shoes. The ask what size you have and a color you like, than it starts. I think I tried forty different shoes and they are all wonderful. It is said that if you don't find the perfect leather bag in Buenos Aires you want find it anywhere, I think that goes for shoes as well. You are not allowed to take pictures inside the shop and they don't have a website.
