I've been to Buenos Aires many times, and it's truly one of my favorite cities. I have to admit, I was a bit worried that my outlook might change as a mom with a small child. Happily, there is plenty to keep kids (and parents) happy in the city. There are playgrounds in every neighborhood. There were two within walking distance of our apartment in Palermo. There's also BA Beach, an man-made beach on the banks of the river, with a water park and playgrounds for kids. Parque Norte, in the Belgrano area has pools and more playgrounds.

Lily loved Bariloche as much as we did. She and Baron enjoyed running around the different lake areas. Watching the two of them together is one of my favorite moments from out time in Argentina. I have to say that the chocolate probably sealed the deal. Lily has definitely inherited her dad's love for sweets. The fact that there was chocolate everywhere made Lily a Bariloche fan. The entire Patagonia region is really made for kids, with a plethora of activities for all seasons. We can't wait to take Lily back to ski, when she's a little older.
