Better to just say I don't care for twangy Country or Metal. Everything else is fair game! Have a propensity for Ethnic music (Spanish, Irish, Indian)
Seems that you got just half of my message :) The picts are under the Norte Argentino album and Cataratas del Iguazu. They are from the north of my country. No picts of BA yet.
I wish you a great week and I hope you have some time to join us in the chat.
Hola Steven:
How are you today? Hope you are well. No. None of pictures is from my country. They are all from 2 trips that I loved, Ireland and Peru.
The yellow church is the San Francisco Church in Lima. The pict. of the kids are from Cuzco. One of the most beautiful places I have ever been to. The garments are Chulo (the one on the head) and poncho ( it covers the body) and the animals are llamas. They are relatives of alpacas and guanacos.
In the north part of my country many people wear them. The inca influence is very notorious there. Buenos Aires is different. The city has a more european style. There is a great mix of cultures here. Most of us are spanish and italian descendant, some german and the biggest irish descendant group of southamerica and of course the natives of the land...
I don't have pictures of BA but I'm going to take some and I let you know when I load them.
Yes , lunch was really good. Milanesa is my favourite meal (well, I love pizza too ;-) ) As most argentinians I'm guilty of loving meat...
I love your pictures. Horses are a real love. When I was a child I used to spend several month in the country and I learned to love them, but I haven't ridden one for ages.
Sorry for the late reply... simply been too busy in here.!
Regarding the manner of changing or choosing your own background and other appearance colours, I can't help you at the moment... not that I don't want to, but simply because I can't modify any of these on my own page now... ;-)
However, when I look to the recent modifications applied to the internal mail (good job Daithi..!) I'm confident soon there will be major modifications to come on the control every users will have on the aesthetical appearance of their own pages...
So... with a little patience, you should soon get the full control over the appearance of your own page... and so should I..! ;-)
But for further informations, you will certainly get a better answer from Daithi, the webmaster in here....
If ya mean Shillelagh, it's an Irish walking stick, and weapon of choice..
