Buenos Aires

I arrived in Buenos Aires, rested after sleeping for at least half of the 20 hours, and took a cab straight to Christine's. We only had about 24 hours to spend together and made the most of it, we had a lot of stuff to tell one another, and I was also looking forward to girlie stuff, such as window shopping and silly giggling.

After a great shower (and a silent internal thanks that it was cloudy and therefore not stiffling hot), we were off to lunch, then walking around. On our way back to her appartment, we were treated to a delicious local beer at the restaurant of some friends of Christine's who are from France. We also played a few rounds of shoot the cork in the bucket, which is a lot more fun than it sounds.

As always, the evening flew by, and we went to bed later than we would have wanted. Early the next morning, we did some last minute shopping (I wanted Havaiannah sandals because I only have 94 pairs at home) and had lunch with Javier and Natalia, two biologists whom I met 6 years ago and through whom I met all others. It was great to see them!

And now I am at the airport. I didn't have a chance to put pictures up but will do when I get home. I only have a few minutes left in this country I love so much. I won't be surprised if I come back!
