La Boca

We spent a much-too-short time in Buenos Aires' La Boca District where there is so much to see. But the bus must move on because we have a schedule! Many of the buildings are painted bright colors like these.

Per Wikipedia:
La Boca is a neighborhood, or barrio of the Argentine capital. It is known throughout the sporting world as the home of Boca Juniors, one of world's top football clubs. La Boca is a popular destination for tourists visiting Argentina, with its colorful houses and pedestrian street, the Caminito, where tango artists perform and tango-related memorabilia is sold. Other attractions include the La Ribera theater, many tango clubs and Italian taverns, as well as La Bombonera, home of Boca Juniors.

Fall color

Those of us in the West who have lived in the East or Midwest tend to feel we don't have proper fall color here. But - look at this stand of trees near the College of Marin parking lot; I didn't check them up close but they are likely liquid-amber. There's plenty of color!
