Buenos Aires

Having a wonderful time in Buenos Aires.
Buenos Aires is a vibrant and colourful city. It has trees lining almost every avenue and street and is shaped in blocks much like many American cities or Manhattan.
We´ve had a wonderful time so far, wandering the streets or into the night, in search of the cities many tourist attractions or cool restaurants and bars.
So no matter what we have eaten or how much vino tinto we have drunk we have worked it all off and more in our walking.
We had a few issues with ATMs but that seems to have worked out now and we are off to hopefully tout some tickets for Boca´s first home game of the season at the famous chocolate box stadium.
We´re all going to take the ferry over to Uruguay on Monday as it is only 1 hr to Colonia and we can go on an organized day trip.
I´ve also been practising my espanol which has gone much better than I hoped - Tennille has been very impressed!
Buenos Aires has been a great 2nd destination and our MyT Argentina appartment has been just what we needed - we´re both looking forward to Rio but will always remember our time in BA.
