Goughie and Gater: le tour!!
We are now happily in Buenos Aires where Sarah is in absolute heaven because of the dulche de leche cakes and lemon meringue pie on offer. We have only had the opportunity to sample 2 coffee shops so far, including one of the most famous coffee shops in argentina (where we were asked out by the waiters who were wearing tuxes to our great amusement....god knows how we attracted them in our travelling attire of joggers!)
It seems that we cannot escape from NLS people at all...we bumped into Natasha at Iguazu falls and when we turned up in BA at our hostel we discovered Richard (yes you know the one Vanessa!!) plus two others from NLS. So of course this caused great amusement and we had a big night out yesterday with the NLS crew.
We have been making the most of the cheap designer shops over here (and the cakes, see above!) so havent done a lot of sightseeing yet. We visited Eva Peron's grave yesterday in the Recoleta cemetery which was really interesting and then we were going to go to a museum but we went astray when we spotted a shopping centre on the map...!
Planning to get some tango lessons in whilst we are over here and we are off to watch a Boca Juniors game on Sunday which is meant to be great fun. Think we may also be having a few nights out in between as BA is not the kind of place you get any sleep (you dont even get a taxi to the club until 2 - 2.30am!!)...bring it on!
