arrived in buenos aires today.
first impression: es muy humido!
for those who don´t speak spanish, that translates to: gosh i need a drank! (not really, cuz i just had 2 amazing glasses of wine. the ¨glasses¨ were probably an entire bottle. i´m not complaining, i´m just saying....) i´m here in buenos aires argentina for a couple of days then it´s off to iguazu falls. pretty excited to see water fall from VERY high to VERY low. don´t know why that is as i see that happen in the shower as well.
other impressions: guys kiss each other on the cheeks as a way to say hola. the dude at the airport who brought our luggage to our taxi kissed the taxi drive (male) on the cheek when they met. both sides. the taxi driver returned the favor. maybe they´re father-son. most likely not. so that makes me feel like i´m more in a european city than santiago, chile, which seemed more american.
dinner around the hotel started at nine pm. (btw i´m 5hr ahead of u in california. that´s right. i´m in the future.) as of 11:30, it still seems like there´s a fair amount of people out at night. wish vacaville was the same way.
i´m about 218ft below sea level according to wiki. weird. a couple of days ago, i was 13,000ft above sea level and wishing mommy was there to make the pain go away.
strange. everyone here speaks mexican. just like vacaville.
