Pictures (mainly of La Boca)

In order to see the whole of all the pictures, you must click on them. I don't know how to resize and all that stuff, so bare with me here.

Rey Carlos

This is Carlos. I don't know if that's his name but I decided that it should be. He used to come out on the veranda everyday while at the certification class and bark. All he was trying to say was, "I'm Carlos! Hey everyone, I'm Carlos."

Hombre de Defensa

When I walk home, this guy is always like this. I thought it was hilarious because obviously he looks like the guy in prison on the Monopoly board.

Photobucket

In La Boca, probably not the safest neighborhood to ever be in especially at night but I wanted some pictures. Here kids are just hanging out. It's pretty poor section of Buenos Aires and it's not good to be there if you're not from there.

Photobucket

They used to paint all the houses in La Boca with whatever paints were left over from anywhere. It became so La Boca that they have repainted a lot of the houses with the same colors. Que linda!

More La Boca.

This girl was posing for another picture other than mine.

This is my favorite picture so far. I was riding on my bike and taking photos at the same time and I passed by this.

dude...the captions didn't match the pictures. where are the fighting dinosaurs? Danny

Judy said...

Yeah, where was Carlos?

So, what's new? Are you loving it there? Do tell, do tell. Oh, you're missing lots of funny business here...

Jessica Rockey said...

Yeah, I missed Carlos too. I just thought it was me... or the mind altering drugs I'm currently on... but Danny and Judy seemed to miss him too.

Love the vibrant colors! I think I'm inspired to paint the house.

Okay, on a technical note: everyone's wondering where Carlos is...maybe you figured this one out already but the pictures are all cut off. We can't see the dog, the man behind bars, or the couple at the window. The photos all came out on my Reader but on your actual blog we only see a portion of the pics. Maybe you can resize them? I don't think this happened in previous posts. Poor Carlos.

Don't worry dude.I found Carlos...and that is some mean bike-riding skilz.

Eww..Im a bad man...a bad man!

Miss you brohan. and am still waiting for that pic you promised :-)

Judy said...

Okay, I see it all now. I'm diggin' the colors. Is everything painted like that?

It took me awhile to figure out that these weren't the full pictures. I didn't see any monopoly man or Carlos until I looked at them on photobucket (which sometimes that acts weird too). Either way, cool pics.
