Sunday 1 October 2006
Today Ryan and I went to the Feria de Mataderos, a very large fair outside the city. There are thousands of stalls selling all kinds of handmade crafts: lots of leather products, knitted and woven clothing, silver, mates, and carved wooden things. Lots of art and lots of local food. There are also gauchos (Argentine cowboys) on horses performing tricks and showing off, people singing and playing instruments, both on and off the stage, tango and traditional dance classes, and you can even ride a llama. I've heard that there is a livestock market around somwhere, too, but we didn't see it.
