Hello everyone- it's been a bit since I got a chance to update. Been busy planning for when we leave Buenos Aires. So far, it's been slow going, trying to research transport/accommodations, because all useful websites are entirely in Spanish, and most of them don't have an English translation link.

After checking out of our apartment in exactly two weeks, we'll head to the bus station in Retiro, which is easily accessible via the C line on the Subte (subway). We're catching the 7:40pm bus through a company called Via Bariloche, heading to Iguazu Falls. The bus ride is 15 hours (ack!), but we booked super camas (tutto letto), which are fully reclinable seats. Plus, a vegetarian dinner, and a movie. I think it'll be okay, as long as I find a book for the trip. We'll arrive at 11am or so, and go check in to our hostel, Aguara House. Spending the day in Puerto Iguazu, then taking a bus/taxi up to the falls the next day. Back to the hotel, then the long journey back into the city, where we'll catch another bus south to Mar del Plata. Thus will begin our adventure into the vast expanse of Patagonia.


A few days ago I stumbled across info about a burrito restaurant in microcentro. Apparently it was opened by some expats from Cali...Well, obvious we had to go there immediately. I miss Qdoba and just Mexican food in general, so I was pretty happy about this little find. And it didn't disappoint. Could've used to some Cholula on it though! ;)




There was a snowboard video on the TV too, so we felt right at home.



Minnie likey.


Also, last night we were at a bar and a group of Jagermeister girls came in with free shots...made me think of you, Sonya- lol :)
