(photo below: kiddy park traffic. it seemed like every kid was driving some sort of mini vehicle)
(photo below: cruising in the park)
(photo below: i witnessed so many kiddy car accidents. most of the time the kids were looking to the left as the car was moving to the right. in the photo below the little girl was still moving as she was looking back waving.)
(photo below: this is my favorite photo from the day. she reminds me of a granny on a jazzy scooter)(photo below: ice cream time)
(photo below: my new flavor...passion fruit!!!! it was hidden by the mango ice cream on the top)
(photo below: on the train home we passed many poor dwellings along the tracks.)
(photo below: it appeared the cartoneros (trashpickers) were unloading and sorting recycles here )

That hanging-out-the-door image makes me feel a bit queasy.
Those kids are a riot!
hahaha, i feel like i could easily be a safety enforcer in b.a. "excuse me sir but that is dangerous, please stay inside the train while it's in motion" and the list could go on...
the kiddies were cute. i never seen so many of those cars and the accidents were hysterical (no one was hurt, they just looked shocked)
