While touring South America, I managed to arrange my schedule so that I could fit a week end in Rio de Janeiro as well as the following week end in Buenos Aires.

KAP in Rio was fun and short, the wind were very light and the light so so... I initially wanted to KAP the Corcovado but the crowd was too large, the security too present and there where too many helicopters flying around the statue, I then decided to head to the Sugar Loaf but then realised that it was right in front of Santos Dumont Airport, so I finally ended up on Copacabana...

KAP in Buenos Aires was also fun, I met some great KAPers and Kite flyers from the BaToCo club and it was my first KAP session under the rain. A warm "Gracias" to Ramiro who took me around Buenos Aires looking for some interesting KAP targets. I need to go back when the sky will be blue !!!!

Floralis Generica is a beautiful sculpture located in United Nations Park in Buenos Aires. A giant, 23 meter sculpture made of steel and aluminum which moves, closing its petals at night and opening them during the day. It has some lighting for special ocassions too. The sculpture is the work of Argentinian architect Eduardo Catalano.
