Plaza Serrano

Sat.Dec.27.2008

Around 1pm today I left the apartment to go check out Plaza Serrano

I walked down a major street from my apartment and then took a right towards the plaza. It was maybe a 15 min. walk. As I started to get close, trendy stores began to appear. Also the buildings in this area look like the older Spanish style and they're well kept. Once I was at Plaza Serrano I became a shutterbug. I don't know what took me so long to get there. I really like it...

(photo below: On my way back I stopped at a new empanada place. They also have something similar called a "Baston" (I think). They were just as good. I got one with pumpkin, but I didn't like it that much. I appreciate their creativity though)

These photos are great. Even though we will be there in less than 3 weeks and can walk around making these discoveries for ourselves, your photos and descriptions of shopping and getting through the day are fun and informative to read. Thanks.

Thank you for your comment and kind words! You're really going to love it here.

Plaza Serrano will be about the same walking time (15 min. or so) from your new home. You can walk down your street, Godoy Cruz, and make a left on Honduras and go 3 more blocks. Plan on spending one day there. There are so many interesting shops to look into and there are also many outside cafes where you can just enjoy the atmosphere.
