Halloween in Buenos Aires

An ACORN Halloween: Once it was explained to the kids at the club that on Halloween the Kids in the US go from door to door in silly costumes and ask for candy (almost always getting it from every house they stop at) they basically decided for us that they wanted to celebrate this very American Holiday...and what 8 year old wouldn't want to wear a costume and eat candy all day? So here are some pictures of ACORN's first Halloween.


It's not Halloween with out Fairy Princesses



Waiting to bob for Apples


Painting Swords and wands and....


Faces

And for a little more "adult" Halloween: it would have been against our Rotary roles of spreading "Good Will" if we didn't share this very special holiday with our new friends. Patrick and Daniel, other good-will scholars hosted a very Happy Halloween party filled with costumes and witches brew. I must say for not being a very celebrated holiday here our argie friends definitely rose to the occasion.













For anyone wondering about this one: Daniel my dear friend decided to dress like me for Halloween...shortening himself by cutting holes in boxes, trimming a wig to match my hairstyle and renting the most hideous shirt I have ever seen to pull it off.
