So I went to Argentina for a week for my March Break. It is a week long holiday that I get as a teacher in Toronto. So the wife and I decided to meet some other friends (who were vacationing there) in Buenos Aries. I've never flown 11 hours before....nor have I ever been to South America.
Little did I know.....my trip would have a major U2 connection.
For starters. The ad that would play a ton on the TV in the apartment we rented.

Yup....a U2 Phone made by Motorola.
And then of course the huge posters everywhere...yup...that's me...Mr. Happy.
In the mall...the promo for the album....sorry for the blurry picture.
But the best of all.....we went to a place called La Boca. While we were site seeing, my friends (who tried to keep it a secret) showed me in their guide book a restaurant where Bono has eaten at! I told them we MUST go. They agreed and took me to this restaurant that has been family owned for 70 years.
Inside...there are a ton of pictures of celebs who have eaten there.......and of course.....we had a huge lunch.....and then I found it. I took a picture of a picture.
Bono....Larry....1998.....El Obrero. What a great plan by my friends to take us there. Fantastico!
