Rainy days in BA'S

I just looked at the 10 day forecast for BA. The first two days full showers!!! What's your advice on seeing the city or spend those days shopping and hope for sun.

Forecasts in BA are notoriously unreliable, for reasons I've never understood. You could have just clouds or a few showers. If it really does rain, there are a cople of good shopping malls -- Patio Bullrich and Galleria Pacifica.

Currently there are two good musicals playing in Buenos Aires, Sweet Charity and Victor Victoria. Although they are in Spanish I believe you might enjoy them

There are SO many museums and places to shop and eat, I cannot imagine rain getting in our way.
Perhaps living in a city where it rains a lot has changed my way of thinking but you can still do just about everything , even if it rains. Maybe carry a small umbrella ..

We were concerned about rainy weather before our trip to BsAs last November (based on online forecasts), but fortunately it didn't turn out to be anything to worry about. We had heavy rain I think twice, but it was during the night so had no effect on our activities.

There are a number of very good museums in BsAs that would be perfect to visit if you do have a rainy day or two. Or go shopping as suggested above.

We've had rain on previous trips to Europe, but never let it ruin our stays. Travel is too wonderful to let weather spoil it!

Hi,I agree that there are nice museums and art galleries in Buenos Aires to
visit on a rainy day. During each visit we have enjoyed going to the MALMA museum, and after or before the visit having lunch in next door Museo Renaud. This is a beautiful restaurant,with good food and service full of locals.There is a set menu for lunch and also sushi and a la carte.
