Biking Buenos Aires tour: Parks and Plazas

This year marks TWENTY years since I first went to Buenos Aires for tango. Back in my tango youth, I ignored anything that was not directly linked to dancing. Now, I make room for non-tango activities every visit.

The Parks and Plazas was a new bike tour for me and it took me to places in Buenos Aires I had never been: the green parts of Palermo and Recoleta.

The weather was perfect, and we had a great time with the New Zealanders who shared our tour. Raymond, our guide, was informative and witty, and got us through in good shape. We even all went out for a beer at the end of the day!
