Mar del Plata Toursist Invasion

Tuesday, March 2nd, 2010

As you know, Mar del Plata from January to March is one thing, and from March to December is another. Just turn off the fireworks from December 31, the invasion of tourists begins.

The origin and class of tourists is varied, there are visitors from the North, South and West (East not because it should be or sirens or African). But what is abundant at this time of year, the cannon fodder of the invasion of Mar del Plata, comes from Capital and Greater Buenos Aires.

No offense, I must say that any marplanauta born with allergies to Buenos Aires. Is that an overnight, we are overrun by people who, speaking plainly, are thought to have heard it all, can not enjoy a second without touching the horn, do not stop running around for the other and, as if this were not enough, do not stop criticizing Mar del Plata!

Because if sir, devalued tourist model post 2001, likes to say that Mar del Plata does not arrive or the heels of Buzios, Cancun, Punta or Miami.

It should be noted that this is the worst kind of tourist, because tourists are coming to Buenos Aires unless you create superior. Just yesterday, in my business (an Internet) appeared a tourist with his digital little camera, wanting to lower their photos. When cyber at least 3 people per day come to lower their photos, so it is a task that already have more than learned and is routine.

Mr. tourists took care of me had 500,000 instructions on how to use the camera, where it was to spend time pointing the USB plug, where it was to download the photos, which was to press the mouse button, etc.. etc. Because, of course, here in town do not know the cameras, what’s more, we think marplanautas photos steal your soul. And that is only 1 of the countless anecdotes like that any marplatense can count.

NOT everyone is like, and will relate other subfaunas turistescas. But the point is that after months of living in complete tranquility, not the lechon finished off the New Year and we have to put up with lances tens of thousands of maverick, what makes my city in a kind of yin-yang , enjoyable and hated, loved and hated at the same time. With this first tap the tourist worst possible opening this new section, only missing the obligatory question to the bloggers of the big city you … what kind of tourist is?
