The last week in Buenos Aires has been perfect. Hard to believe this is work, except for the multiple 20 hour days of shooting. I really like this country, tons of character and I feel like we have seen a good majority of it.
Here are the highlights.
Motorcycle riding for the cameras.
We had to ride horseback to get to one of our locations. We shot until 4am and had to ride them back that night under an amazing blanket of stars.
The ex president and current first husband of Argentina (his wife took office after his term expired) passed away on Thursday and on Friday we somehow found ourselves in the funeral procession. It was really cool. Everyone was singing and the streets were jammed packed with people paying there respects. They obviously loved this guy.
We went out Friday and Saturday until the sun came up. We saw a great Argentinean cover band. I may have fallen in love with the lead singer.
We had a fun Halloween. They dont really celebrate the holiday but we did find the one club that was having a party. We were surrounded by american college students studying in argentina, it was one big college party. We stood out. Gabe, the other camera man and I dressed up as cholos.
We rode the subway all over the city. If we started a band this would be our album cover.
We left Buenos Aires last night and flew to Johannesburg, South Africa. We had the day off here and did some exploring. Too much to see in a day but seemed like a pretty cool city. Tomorrow we are off to Windhoek, Namibia and will be staying on a big game reserve. Should have some cool pictures to come.
