Killing time and bikini shopping
Jan 12, 2008 (3 photos) ... but we will see how brave I am. After the shopping and some blissfully fast loading internet, we just had time to explore the riverside and the few murals around the city. Suffice to say Corrientes is making more of its riverfront than Buenos Aires is.
