La Avenida 9 De Julio

Avenida 9 de Julio(9 of july) is an avenue in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Its name honors Argentina's Independence Day.

The avenue runs roughly one kilometer to the west of the Río de la Plata waterfront, from the Retiro district in the north to Constitución station in the south. The avenue has six lanes in each direction. its full of lights everywhere you go. its almos like the Dallas downtown. I remember going to the downtown with my dad alone, and sometimes my sister would come with us, but we tried to keeo her home because she was little at that time, and she cried about everything, cause she wanted everything she could see. There were tons of like stores! it was awesome, it was like a super giant mall from the united states.it was nice. also everytime we went with my dad, we used to eat at a pizzeria, or a restaurant that only sells pizza, oh my god those pizza were the best thing I have ever tried, and im not exaggerating. Only thinking about it and remember thats beatiful smell, my mouth gets all watery, and my stomach hurts because of the hunger!!

So yeah, if i was still living in Argentina, I would of go with my girlfriend and walk and feel the fresh air of the streets of la avenida 9 de julio.

Colectivos

A small public bus. Colectivos thats how they call it in argentina, as well as omnibus, or bondi. This is one way you can travel and enjoy all the views og the country. One thing, colectivos have some advantages and some disadvantages. the advantages are that is affordable traveling in one, maybe you can start talking to people and get along whith them, make friends, it dosen't have many advantages. The disadvantages are people stilling things from you, like purses, money, anything valuable. And also most of the time full of people! sometimes its nasty because they get alltogether, and sometimes people dont take a showers.

There are stops like here in the USA, I imagine its the same in all countries. Theyre distinguished for their color, most of them are colorful like in the picture shown. they're old looking, i hope they trade them for good looking modern ones.

Now What?

A 6-1 beating is not good, is the worst nightmare Argentina could have! Specially against Bolivia. No offense to any Bolivian, but Argentina is Argentina, they are one of the best soccer players in the world, like I have said in other blogs, and Bolivia is not a good national team, if anybody wants to argue, then go check out the soccer National team ranks, and then come talk to me. This are some lame excuses I have heard that took them to the loss; First the excuse about the heights. The Bolivian soccer field is at the top of a mountain, or is tall in height. That’s a good reason, but then why didn’t the coach Maradona took the whole team like a week before so they can get used to it and learn how to breathe up there? Uh? Can somebody tell me?
The second excuse I heard is that they stayed overnight many days celebrating because they have won to Venezuela 4-0. And that Maradona gave them some free days instead of putting them to practice. Can someone explain that? That’s crazy. Now that I know this I think this coach is not worth. The AFA should get another coach for the National team. A good one, with responsibility.

The new Puma V1.08 football boot

Puma launches the second generation of its lightweight v-Speed football product line these shoes are designed for speed and built to get you to the ball even faster.
The v.08 line includes the lightest and latest technology in footwear, apparel and accessories as Puma.

The evolution of the v1.08 football boot from its popular v1.06 predecessor is based on Puma’s unique AptoLast design, and includes several new advancements in technology, performance and durability.
Designed and engineered for the fastest players in the game, the v1.08 boot utilizes Puma’s cross-category UNI construction in which the upper is stitched (not glued or lasted) to the sole. Made from extra-thin lightweight materials with a second layer of microfibre for tactile characteristics, the v1.08 provides feel, grip and performance on the ball.

Pick it up, throw it in the air and feel the weight. Or lack of it. Just 200 grams of weight is achieved as a result of the two-piece outsole construction, carbon fiber forefoot and removable chassis. Looking through the see-through sole, you can check out for yourself the shoe’s double-density, carbon fiber forefoot and advanced design. Lastly, the Puma Cat branding and v1.08 logo on the tongue are complemented by asymmetric speed lacing with special lace loops for a modern on-field look. this incredible boots cost $199.99. some day i would love to have them... soon. they come in different color. my preference is white red and black like those picture showed above.
