Beautiful Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires is the Capital City of Argentina





This is the PINK HOUSE viewed from Plaza de Mayo.  It's thought of like the USA

White House in Washington, DC, but the Argentinean President doesn't actually live here.

She lives in the suburbs of the city.

 

 
 

 
 

 

The architecture has an interesting mix of European

 influences as well as antique and modern structures.

 
 

 

Puente De La Mujer (Bridge Of The Woman)

 

 

 Floralis Generica, or the Steel Flower

23 meters high and weights 18 tons

 

 

This cat has a jacket on with the

country flag and reads "Argentina!"

 

 

Motorcycles are everywhere! 

 On the sidewalks, in the streets, in the grass....all over!

 

 

I noticed many dog parks and

dogs out for walks in the city!

 

 

The Fulbright Commission of Argentina has hosted 8 school principals

from all over the USA during this trip.  I'm in the middle.  My newest principal friends

are from Indiana, Michigan, Maryland, North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee, and a few other familiar spots!  Over the past 12 years, the Administrator Exchange program has connected

500 school leaders between the USA and Argentina!

 

What will we learn about next?

You'll find out soon!

Check back often and stay connected!
