Yesterday was a Holiday in BA, the celebration of the death of San Martin, one of the country's great hero fellas. This led to a lot of people lounging about outside, many of them deftly manuevering spherical rubber balls with their feet in an athletic manner. Puzzling indeed, but I'll get to the bottom of that mystery someday.
In the meantime, I had my own mysteries to settle, such as how to reclaim my stolen email account (a matter still open and pending), and where the devil to find some cheap grub on a day where almost everything was closed. Having eaten empanadas for both lunch, and unexpectedly, dinner the day before, that was outta the question. What we later ate however, only led to more mystery (to be covered in next post).
It's also Tango Month here, which means there's lots of tango related happenings. We popped to the city center to check out a "free class", which took place in a ridiculously crowded lobby, so crowded that the students were limited to practicing walking in a circle, first forwards, then backwards. I don't cotton to slow circle walking, so we rolled back to the apartment, where I got to skype with one of my favorite people.
Overall, a mysterious day with occasional delights.
