HI friends, it's been awhile but i thought i'd catch you up. I spent the last 6 months in the Vail valley working at the hyatt and enjoying the beautiful snow. It is just an in between thing till i figure out what to do with my life after peace corps but it was definitely fun! but that is not what i really want you too eperience with this post.
My friend laurie and i are taking two weeks and traveling around argentina. We got to buenos aires yesterday. I spent 30 hours in the denver airport trying to get on a plane to atlanta to meet here for our trip but flying standbye on a day when i guess all of denver was trying to get out was not fun! i watched 10 planes leave without me before finally changing my travel plans and getting on a flight to minneapolis and connecting to atlanta. i made it to ATL with 3 hours to spare before out flight to Buenos Aires so i guess it was a good idea i gave myself 2 traveling days!
it has been really rainy here and neither laurie nor myself came prepared! We have just been walking around the city getting our bearings but we refuse to buy an umbrella cause we are sure the rain will let up sometime. we also refuse to take taxis cause we are just that cheap so we have been getting a little wet! here is a picture of us showing up to the museum of fine art looking aweful! i really can't believe we walked in looking the way we did but oh well!! the best thing we have founds so far has definately been the steak. for any of you that enjoy a nice piece of meet, argentina is definately the place for you! We got the biggest, juiciest steak last night and it only cost us 6 dollars! i have never tasted anything like it before!!!
At nine tonight, we get on our overnight bus for the 16 our ride to Mendoza, a.k.a. wine country!! i can't wait. we are going to spend at least 3 nights there exploring the best the region has so offer.
