Jumbo-sized Buenos Aires

It would be easy to think that Buenos Aires is a city of small shops, but jumbo-sized shopping exists here too, as we discovered when we went to Abasto this weekend. The mall there is easily the largest I've ever been in. It's even big enough to fit a Ferris wheel! Check out the photos.


Yup, that's a pirate ship amusement park ride in the background.
Next door there's a Wal-mart like superstore (or hipermercado).

    Haha no. We were on a mission to find jeans. We only saw the Ferris wheel because we felt we needed coffee to accomplish our mission.
