These people are dressed up and pose like statues along Caminito street.

Caminito: The most famous street in La Boca is called Caminito(little path), and is the center of tourist activity in the area. The street is commonly shown on postcards for its multi-colored houses. Many artists also show off their work on the sides of the main street.
La Boca Soccer Stadium: The Boca Juniors is one of the biggest soccer teams in Argentina and happens to be one of the clubs that the soccer great Diego Maradona played for. Their stadium, La Bombonera, is not so surprisingly located in the La Boca barrio. It is possible to get tickets to most games and be a part of a truly Argentine experience. A Soccer Tour is a recommended way to experience this Argentine phenomenon.
La Boca is the oldest, most colorful, and most authentic neighborhood in Buenos Aires. The neighborhood was settled and built by Italian immigrants that worked in the warehouses and meatpacking plants in the area. La Boca is partly an artist colony, and mostly a working-class neighborhood.

We are enjoying lunch with the Senior Missionary couples at La Boca.

Bailando el Tango (dancing the tango) May 18, 2009- Look at me!!!

I am not as good as Jennifer Lopez in the movie "Shall we dance". But I love this song.
