Back in BA (Shut up fool!!!)

Sunset over San Telmo (from our balcony)

14 hours later, we arrived back in Buenos Aires...the bus was far too hot as everyone was cold....Debo had big swollen feet when we got off....and found it hard to get her boots on, but ok now...food was rubbish and we did not sleep too well....but the taxi drive to the hostel soon woke us up....2 lanes, 15 cars trying to get into the 2 lanes, only 2 can win...luckily we were one of them as our driver kept his nerve....bashes all over the cars here, so Roddy plenty of jobs for you if you wanted (although they dont look to keen on getting them fixed) we are staying at the hostel we stayed at before, which is really nice...the weather is cloudy today, but at least it is still warm...but not to the Argentinians who are still insisting on wearing balaclavas (well not quite but if they could get their hands on them then they would....aaahhhhhhh a niche in the market) we are here for a week and then heading off to Peru...have some things we need to sort out first thou. Tonight we are meeting some people we met at the hostel in Mendoza for some Thai food and nice wine and beer...this life is great... Not sure about the Spanish lessons, as they are looking to be a bit too expensive for our budget, but we will see.... we will keep you posted as the internet cafe is at the bottom of the stairs where we are staying and it costs 0.50pesos for one hour (about 9 pence) the chinese guy who works here, just laughs when we walk in...(bit of a language barrier)....xx

Hi guys,

Been in Italia again so sorry for not keeping in touch, belated Happy Birthday IB, glad to see you liked the 'cold lemon flavoured cough syrup' enough to buy a bottle for yourselves...

Catherine says 'Hi' but seeing as she doesn't have a gmail account its always me that does the posting!

I'm off to Italia again tomorrow, one of the housekeepers is Sicilian and makes her own Limoncello so I'm getting the recipe and hopefully a free bottle!!

Take care guys, save me a llama (or an alpaca...I'm not fussy!)

Al & Catherine
