After 14-16 hours I finally arrived in Buenos Aires. It is summertime here and the weather is much warmer then DC. Along the way I met a friendly Argentine lady traveling with her daughter who filled me in on some places to go and foods to try during my stay. Let's see if it pays off!
Day one consisted of a lot of walking through the 'Microcentro' part of the city, which is the business district. Also took a stroll down Florida Ave., a place with a lot of shops clearly geared towards tourists. The American music and pricey merchandise are sure give-aways. The AM treat was a Toastado sandwich, an Argentinian version of grilled ham and cheese that is amazing.
Most of the day was spent napping and getting adjusted to the new environment. The next post will be more enjoyable, I promise.
Word/Phrases of the day (Disclaimer: I do not claim that these are grammatically correct, but at least they were understood):
- Cambiar dolares para pesos?
- Gracias!
