Hi, I'm back with the latest from last year and a few from the past few days.
On my first morning walk this year, I came across this Argentine popcorn cart.
Google Translate took away the pleasure of explaining what popcorn is, which in Spanish we call by various names, depending on the country: Palomitas and cotufas, as well as ´´pochoclos´´.
A few meters away, a small mural honors Mafalda in the square that bears her name and reminds us that half a century later we are no better off.
Every time I pass by this mural, I wonder who the character is.
Whoever painted it, I think, needed no introduction and didn't give a name, so if you recognize him, please tell me in the comments.
On the 30th, I enjoyed a day trip to Tigre, with a walk along the river channels, but it also has other attractions, which can be the occasion for other visits; casino, craft market and mechanical amusement park.
It is free-falling, you can see it from a distance and I estimate that it is more than 12 stories high.
Not everyone braves heights for fun. If you look closely, you can see the worker hanging from a cable stretched from the roof above the 16th floor, to repair a ventilation system on the 10th or 12th floor.
Just looking at him made me feel dizzy.
And since heights also have advantages, I say goodbye with the sunset captured from the 13th floor.
Health and peace in this incipient 2025
Happy New Year, @felixmarranz & family. 🫂🥂
Beautiful pictures.
Our best wishes for all of you in this new home
A very happy new year to you all.
I hope that this will be a year of recovery and well-being for Manuela and the whole family, that it will be a year of triumphs and celebrations in all areas of life.
A big hug @hlezama.

I am afraid of heights, and if I were to climb up to that altitude, I would not dare look down.
I don't like them either, but since I live on the 13th floor, I'm getting used to the view, but hanging from a cable is a completely different thing. No way.
