Elena decided to go shopping by herself in the morning (I'm apparently not the best shopping buddy... as I usually wait in front of the store..) I decided to visit la plaza del congresso, which is Argentina's equivalent of Canada's parliament. As usual, the building was closed for visit and I didn't have a change to visit it. The building was still impressive and well worth a look. Its architecture is similar to the congress structure in Washington D.C. I then headed to the Teatro Colon, which is the main lyric theater and a center for classical music, ballet & opera. Out of luck, I realized this building was also closed and most of it was under construction. I passed by the Palacio de Justicia and got in a few seconds until I realized the guards didn't seem to appreciate tourists taking pictures. I made it back to school with Elena's compass and managed not to get lost. For our last night in Buenos Aires we went to see a Milonga with Davide at a place called Confiteria. A Milonga is a traditional evening for Tango dancers.
