Haircut, Hermann's and History (Natural)

Another rainy day in Buenos Aires. After the Embassy, we grabbed breakfast at the hotel and then went out to wander around, with no real plans. Seeing as I hadn't had my hair cut in the past 87 days, we decided to go to this little barbershop/salon around the corner and get an Argentinian haircut. The dude was really nice and I actually got a good haircut for about $13 (US), including tip. Here's the before and after:

Then we just wandered around the city. Jen thought it would be fun to go into a grocery store and see all of the things that are unlike a U.S. grocery store, like Bimbo bread.



Then we happened upon this awesome old-school restaurant named Hermann's, which was a great place to warm up and dry off.



The wait staff was entirely composed of little old men, like these two:



We then took a cab down to the Natural History Museum. Like most people, I'm a huge fan of prehistoric mammals, and this museum's collection did not disappoint; however, the museum as a whole was rather small and unimpressive. It also appeared to have no heating system. Luckily, there were a few dozen dirty cats out front, being fed by a couple of bag ladies. Maybe they were fattening them up for a forthcoming exhibit.

Not really sure what the plans are for tonight...
