Verão em Buenos Aires

Folha

“Parem de postar fotos de praia!!”, diz, meio desesperada, minha amiga Ana Manfrinatto, paulista residente em Buenos Aires, no Facebook. Entendo Ana perfeitamente, para os nascidos nos trópicos, e que passaram meses intermináveis no inverno portenho, ver as temperaturas beirarem os 40 graus e não poder sentir nem a mais leve brisa do mar –nem do Rio da Prata, para quem Buenos Aires inexplicavelmente dá as costas– pode ser uma verdadeira tortura.

O verão em Buenos Aires vem em boa hora, claro. O inverno aqui é cruel e terrivelmente longo. Até quem é de São Paulo, e que conhece o frio um pouco, sofre, pois não rola por aqui o nosso conhecido veranico, aquelas semanas de trégua em que as temperaturas voltam a subir e nos permitem desligar o aquecedor e chutar os cobertores (se bem que quem passou o inverno em SP neste ano não pode reclamar, as temperaturas foram saarianas).

O problema é que esperar os dias de calor em Buenos Aires tem um desenlace decepcionante. Ele vem, claro, mas, como São Paulo, a cidade não está preparada para aproveitá-lo. Primeiro, porque ninguém quer. Em meados de outubro, o portenho se vê atacado por uma espécie de epidemia e todos correm para reservar um lugar ao sol, principalmente, na disputada costa uruguaia.

Por outro lado, a cultura local do comércio é fechar tudo, como se um vírus perigosíssimo estivesse se aproximando e obrigasse a todos a entrar em quarentena. O capitalismo, no verão portenho, é relegado ao mundo da teoria. Restaurantes, bares, lojas, se não são turísticos, encerram suas atividades. No último domingo, com amigos do Brasil, demos com o nariz na porta do célebre El Obrero, na Boca, fechado por férias até 14 de janeiro. E até o lugar onde costumo mandar a roupa para lavar parou de trabalhar no dia 17 de dezembro e só volta, nada menos, que em fim de janeiro.

Depois vêm as dificuldades de infra-estrutura. Pouco arejada no centro e desolada nos bairros por conta do fim do comércio, os poucos portenhos que ficaram vão aos parques, que podem ser lindos, mas não têm boas atrações extras para a temporada e onde faltam lagos e piscinas.

Mas o pior problema são as chuvas. Em dias de “tormenta”, o lixo mal recolhido boia, o transporte coletivo colapsa e as pessoas ficam sem poder mover-se pela cidade. Também como em São Paulo, há pontos crônicos de alagamento sobre os quais as autoridades nada fazem. Ah, e a luz acaba para voltar daí a três, quatro, cinco horas.

Falta, ainda uma programação cultural apropriada, principalmente para a população de baixa renda, que não pode ir nem a Mar del Plata e está condenada à selva ardente. Festivais ao ar livre, corridas e passeios de bicicleta pelas margens do Rio, a chamada Costanera, não viriam mal.

Já os turistas, brasileiros, a maioria, ficam órfãos zanzando pela cidade desabitada, à mercê de taxistas espertalhões especialmente irritados pelas altas temperaturas. Com os mesmos amigos de São Paulo, tentando voltar para casa após ver uma exposição na Fundação Proa, tivemos de ouvir desaforos de um que não queria perder seu lugar no ponto por menos de 40 pesos (queríamos ir a uma distância mais curta). Apontou o ponto de ônibus e disse: “se não vá caminhando, eu não saio daqui”.

Há muito para ser feito pelas autoridades municipais. Também estaria bem uma mudança de cultura para receber melhor a estação mais esperada do ano. Ou, pelo menos, para conviver com ela com mais tranquilidade e menos animosidade.

Por ora, porém, o portenho segue suando e sofrendo. Ironicamente, ansiando pelo inverno, enquanto as revistas e os jornais estampam as fotos de políticos e famosos afortunados nas praias de Punta del Este.

  6. I must express some thanks to this writer for rescuing me from this particular instance. As a result of checking through the search engines and obtaining solutions which are not productive, I figured my life was gone. Living without the strategies to the problems you have solved by way of your good posting is a serious case, and those which may have badly affected my entire career if I hadn’t discovered your blog post. Your good knowledge and kindness in dealing with all things was crucial. I’m not sure what I would’ve done if I had not encountered such a point like this. I can also at this moment relish my future. Thanks for your time so much for your high quality and sensible help. I will not be reluctant to refer the website to anybody who should receive assistance about this matter.

  8. The Spout Springs Ski Area in the Blue Mountains northeast of Pendleton has a rich history of cross-country skiing. Unfortunately, hard times hit this ski resort in the 1990s. Wind-storm damage closed it for several years. New owners reopened the ski area in 1999, but the Nordic operation has been slow to reach its full potential. Currently, only short trails near the ski lodge are groomed. The ski area has two cross-country trail systems. The lower system, which once had three groomed loops, is north of the ski lodge, in the woods below the alpine ski runs. The Stagecoach Loop is the only trail currently in use in the lower system. The upper trails are on a plateau 400 feet above the lodge. Olympic cross-country ski team trained on this plateau in the 1950s. They could not have picked a more scenic training course. Skiers here are treated to views of the surrounding Blue Mountains, the distant Wallowa Mountains, and the Seven Devils in Idaho. There are 6 miles of trails on this plateau, but they have not been groomed since trees fell across some of the trails during a windstorm in November 2000. When these trails were groomed, a trail pass ($12 in 2000) included one chairlift ride to the plateau, eliminating a long uphill climb from the ski lodge. The upper trails are well worth a visit. Check with the ski area to find out if grooming has resumed. Track Quality: Fair classic skating, fair skatingThe tradition states that the Befana is a very old woman that flies on a broom and there is a pagan as well as a Christian version of her origins. The pagan one states that the Befana represents the old year, while the Christian version states that three wise men headed to bring gifts to baby Jesus had asked for directions to an old woman that was sweeping and cleaning and then invited her to come along. However she refused but some time later, she regretted her decision and with a basket full of sweets she headed out in the hopes of finding them but was unable to, so she started giving out her sweets at every house with a small child with the hope that one of them would be Jesus. So from then on, she descends at every house giving children their gifts in order to be forgiven.

  24. The young man, much upset by this avowal, indulged for some moments in the strong and simple language of resentment. But if I have described him as inclined to candour and to reason I can give no better proof of it than the fact of his being ready to face the truth by the end of half an hour. “You were quite right after all. I’m very much interested in her. Only, to be fair,” he added, “you should have told my mother also that she’s not – at all seriously – interested in poor me.”
