DAY 1 (2 of 2) – FIRST WALK IN BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA

After our red-eye flight, we managed to have a short walk from San Telmo to Microcentro. We strolled along Defensa, the main cobblestone street lined with antique shops, from the south end of San Telmo all the way to its north end at Plaza de Mayo. We stopped by Casa Rosada at the plaza and turned west to reach Avenida 9 de Julio, the widest avenue in the world..
