THE FOOTNOTES

Buenos Aires, called "the Paris of Latin America," deserves its name -- incredible art museums, cultural life, and lots of dog poop on the sidewalks. You can see dog walkers out with 15 dogs at a time. I don't know how they do it! Anyway, this particular sculpture is fascinating because it's equipped with solar batteries that make the flower open in the daylight and close at night. It's my favorite piece of art in the whole city.
