Introduction
Boca Raton is a rare treat ? one of the USA?s wealthiest cities, but relatively unknown by British tourists. Many Brits that do go there are wealthy, and also own homes there. If you are looking for a safe, exclusive place to visit that has great shopping and dining, non-crowded clean beaches, lots of sporting activities and year round sun then Boca Raton may suit you.
There are no poor areas in Boca. Most of its residents are wealthy and live in homes that are hidden behind gated developments. The walls/moats to these developments are often surrounded by vegetation, to give the impression that you are not actually in an urban area at all. Everything is immaculately well maintained there, from the parks to the pavement.
Getting There
Boca is about an hours drive North from Miami airport in Palm Beach county ...

Advantages: Stylish, classic, comfortable. Disadvantages: You may have to pay a little more, but it's worth it!
Now this IS a nice shirt!
Boca Juniors, the giants of Argentina. Always a safe bet for a nice shirt and this one doesn't let the side down!
Manufactured by Nike, you know that the quality will be good. It's in the sphere dry material, which has very little shine to it and keeps the classic blue and yellow colour scheme looking really great. It's also extremely comfortable to wear, either for leisure or playing in.
The styling is a real triumph too. Of late, Nike have made some very, very dull shirts. They went through a spell of making exactly the same design shirts, just in different colour schemes and different badges. They also tended to make the colours slighlty out. This one is a fantastic return to form though. The styling is simple enough to be classic but, with touches like the really cool collar design, it's got ...
Advantages: Colourful, full of souvenir shops, touristy Disadvantages: Part worth seeing is v. small. Tourist trap
BACKGROUND:La Boca means 'the mouth' and that refers to the mouth of the Riachuelo River. This was BsAs first natural port. The dock facilities of Darsena Sur lie nearby. In the latter part of the 19th century, immigrants settled the area, especially Italians, giving it a peculiar appearance and nature. The tourist heart is located next to the small plaza by the Vuelta de Roca - the site where Almirante Brown, whose bust sits in the plaza - established the Argentina navy's fleet shipyards.
GETTING THERE: I took the 86 bus from Plaza Mayor towards La Boca. Make sure you get the right one as there are more than one 86s. Other buses also go there including the 23 and the 64. Please check with the bus guide.
The 86 does not take you all the way to Caminito so I had to walk about 8 blocks to reach it (remember a map is ALWAYS handy ...
