oh subte.
Oh, this photo. Five minutes after taking this photo, my buddy and I were collectively robbed on the E line of the subte. We had spent an amazing morning shooting one of the most incredible sites I've ever been to--a sprawling, decaying, yet functional campus where they work on the trains. The buildings were beautiful, the machines were awe-inspiring, the colors were fantastic, and I probably shot around 200 photos inside, plus at the abandoned train station just outside it. We were eventually kicked out for trespassing. My buddy shot so many photos that his memory card filled, so I gave him the one I had been shooting on and used my backup card. Then we returned to the city. And he had his camera--with my precious memory card inside--lifted in a packed-like-sardines subway car.
This has pretty much happened to everyone I know here in Buenos Aires. If I'm carrying lots of cash on me, say, to pay my rent, I never get on the subway.

Super Romantical
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day (and Chinese New Year!) but tomorrow I'm posting a special throwback photo and silly story, so enjoy this one today.
This is on the subway here in Buenos Aires. The 'B' line has this ridiculous upholstery that is sort of velvety. I wish I could remember what time of day it was, because I can't remember ever being on a subway car that empty. BUT FULL OF LOVE! I love teenage couples. I was like that once! It was awesome!

subte climatizado
I don't take the subway here half as much as I did in New York. The lines are all a little different. On A line, the doors open well before the train stops. (Really: don't lean against the doors.)
In the summer, all the windows are open in the cars, allowing the warm, underground breeze to pass through. There are also these giant metal ceiling fans on all the cars and in the stations, but they don't really do anything unless you're standing directly beneath them.
It is hot underground.
