So, quick message, I'm just lazy!
I've uploaded photos incase anyone is interested but yesterday (arrival day) and today have mostly been spent sight seeing. Yesterday was Recoleta - where Cathryn lives and today was the main city bit. We went to an amazing percussion band - Bompa de Tiempo!! (photo above) - and had my first FAT steak!!
Today we went to the main city centre - much busier than Recoleta but still relatively quiet as all the Argentinians have left for the summer. Then to the University and the ecological reserve.
The city itself is remarkably clean and green (so many trees)!!! And huge wide streets... very american but with weird colonnial buildings so you could be in Europe. It's hot! Very hot!! But not India hot - thank fook!!
I have decided that I'm a Beluga Whale.... especacially compared to Cathryn who is incredibly tanned. I managed to burn my feet and chest (missed the centre of my chest somehow.... amusing red patch still remains!).
My Spanish is TERRIBLE! I'm thinking in French less but it's still difficult!! A taxi driver found it comical that I could read all the signs no problem but couldnt actually form my own sentences.
Having a blast - it's hot - hahahahahaha. I miss my bike - hoping to go on a bike tour of Tigre on Saturday when Cathryn is off in Colombia. It's flat so not at all taxing I hope!!
chau!! (like Ciao, Argentina's dont say Adios - first mistake (of many))
xxxxxx big hugs xxxxxxx
