Argentina, day 9 - Agustin´s wedding

I hadn´t been to a wedding in ages. I avoid them in any way I can. But this wedding was the best reason (and excuse) to finally make this trip to Argentina.

Weddings tend to be too long. And all the same, also. But I was introduced to very nice and cheerful people, pleased to finally meet "la griega", eager to invite me to their place, to show me around, to make me eat until I would say "please, no more". 

But the most special thing about this wedding was the tenderness in the way Agustin looked at his young bride and his smile, that revealed the 12-year-old boy I met years ago.
