Father's Day

Happy Father's Day from chilly Buenos Aires.

[JG says:
I don't like to make a big thing of Father's Day. Living with Jamie, Charlie and Dava, I am fairly showered with love on the regular anyway. But today they put together some special decorations (below) and gifts, and the kids and I went for a walk to get medialunas, and we all went to CCK for the afternoon, and Jamie and I finished off the night with steak and malbec at home, so I am feeling well fêted. Thanks, family!]

Saturday

Jamie says: We had a lovely day today. In the morning we went to feed the birds at Plaza Alemania. 

In the afternoon we walked to Plaza Francia because we read there would be a Juggling Festival. A picture below shows both girls getting shoulder rides. 

Once we arrived, the "festival" turned out to be about 30 kids playing hackysack and drinking mate. We did happen upon a bubble man which made it all worth it.
