Posh Palermo

Hello everyone! It's been a couple of days since our last post and we've been having lots of fun here. Yesterday we ventured Northwest of our neighborhood to visit the trendy Palermo, district of great fashion and nightlife. We still haven't tried out the Subte (metro) yet and have chosen to walk everywhere instead (to stay in shape in preparation for our climb in the Andes). Here we are taking a break from our walk, with coffee, of course.


We also enjoyed medialunas, Seth's favorite sweet croissant snack, and some people-watching.


We continued meandering our way via Avenida Santa Fe toward Palermo. It was dusk when we arrived, but not surprisingly, every store and café was open and bustling with shoppers and end-of-the-week unwind-ers. There was everything from street vendors to high fashion, laid back cafés to black-lit clubs, and, of course, restaurants to please any palate.

Funny pics of us with some graffiti art in Palermo...



After stopping for a snack and realizing how tired we were after walking nearly an hour to get there, we promised ourselves we'd return for a full day later in the week.

Hope everyone is having a good weekend! Miss you all so much!
San Telmo to come...

  1. Medialunas! I'm very jealous. So happy you're exploring the city. York is York-unusually soggy. Went sailing last Sunday. Taking an art class. Really enjoy traveling along with you!
