Plaza Serrano is in Palermo Viejo: The plaza is at the intersection of Calle Serrano and Calle Honduras.

It is also call Plaza Cortazar.

Oh it is easy to shop in the rain in Palermo, in and out of the shops, you barely get damp :)

Thanks Scarlett ..I tried to get a massage at Aqua Vita today but they had NADA available..are the portenos stressed after the weekend ? Any recommendations re taking the train to the hydrofoil to colonia? I,m in recoleta on Junin ...whre does the train leave from ? Do you just get the hydrafoil when you get off the train?

pougal, you take a taxi to the ferry, at Puerto Madero. The Buquebus Terminal.
You don't want to go in the rain do you?
I would suggest the MALBA today, they are open on Mondays and have the Andy Warhol exhibit plus a fabulous restaurant. Then you can walk with an umbrella, over to Paseo Alcorte where you can shop without getting wet.
