Hello everybody! I thought it would be a great idea to post a bit of the place where I live.
I live in Buenos Aires, Argentina in South America. It's an awesome place to visit a lot of museums, cinemas, theaters, parks and much more. There are a lot of shoppings and the streets are full of friendly people.
I'll show you some photos of Buenos Aires:
1. In the United Nations park in Buenos Aires, there's an eye catching sculpture called Floralis Generica, or the Generic Flower. It was designed by Eduardo Catalano, an Argentinian architect who was trained in the US.
The 18 ton sculpture opens up during the day and closes at night.

2. Another great place to visit is San Telmo. It's a historical neighbourhood, with a lot of people and cafés. It has a lot of galleries and it's houses are old, showing visitors the way old houses were a long time ago.

3. It's one of the newest things in our city: the Natural Reserve. It's a place with fresh air, especially for people who want to relax! (You can also see some new buildings which are being built rright now).

4. Located near the town's centre, The Obelisk is a great sculpture which represents our country.

6. And finally, the awesome Colon Theatre. One of the most important theatres in the world.

Argentina has a lot of wonderful places I'd like to share here with you, but they're a lot and I thought it'd be great to share the most important. Have you ever travelled to Buenos Aires? What do you think of it?
Hope you enjoyed the post,
Love,
Stephie.

Hi Stephie!
How are you?
Buenos Aires looks beautiful and seems like a great city. I would LOVE to travel there some day. It looks like a really fun and interesting city.
I live close (sort of) to Boston, the capital of Massachusetts. And New York City is only a 3-4 hour car ride away....
Love,
Dominique
Hi Priscila!
I'm sorry to hear that you have to go back to school, I know I always am sad when summer is coming to an end...
What grade are you going into?
Thanks for visiting my sisters blog!
Your friend,
Dominique :)
Hi Stephie!
I think I have heard of your president, although I'm not that familiar with her. From how you described her I agree that it's not fair.
The US does have President Obama. I super elated when he won the elections two Novembers ago, my parents let me stay up extra late just to see if he won.I think he wants to change the country for good too....
There were lots of snowstorms everywhere else in Massachusetts and New Hampshire, except for the area where I live in. We've just had cold, gray, and disgusting days. I went to New York City last February with my family and I'm going again with my middle school in June. A couple day trip to NYC is the 8th grade trip that is long awaited for, at my school. I think New York is wonderful too, its such a fun city!
Your friend,

Hi Stephie and Priscilla!
How is your summer (or rather winter for you) going?
My 14th birthday is tomorrow and I'm going into high school in less than a month! I'm really excited! :)
I miss you both, I always love blogging with you!
Hopefully talk to you soon!
Your friend,
Dominique
