An Afternoon in La Boca

Historically, La Boca is Buenos Aire's Little Italy, the main point of entry for Italians at the end of the 19th and beginning of the 20th centuries. It's known for it's brightly painted houses and stores.  Originally the homes were painted with whatever paint was left over on the docks, creating the mishmash of vibrant colors. It's also home of La Boca Football Club (yellow and blue) and the Porteños (the locals) are loca about their fútbol!

Here's a little movie of my afternoon in La Boca....
