Bonaria, Colombo

Speranza
Buenos Aires.

For many, and for many years, to go to Buenos Ayres, or Bonaria, if you mustn't, was to check what was going on at the Teatro Colon. Or perhaps it was the other way round. Anyone exploring Buenos Ayres was bound to keep an eye on what was going on at the Colon.

Bonaria intends to merge with Speranza's more specific blogs on "Colon" -- so keep an eye!
