Birthday bash !!!


After a few...and before a few more (hence the big grin)

Went out for the wine tour, which consisted of being driven around and drinking free wine (nice). We went to a couple of vineyards and then were taken to a place which distills their own spirits. We purchased some goods at every stop (surprise, surprise - 3 bottles of wine and a lemoncello spirit cost a total of ten pounds!! ) and then were taken for a huge lunch. When we came back, we were pretty done in, but in true Scottish style, fought tiredness, by drinking some more. Great day !! We are heading back to Buenos Aires at the weekend and reckon it might be a good idea to take some Spanish lessons, before heading to Peru (we are struggling in parts of Argentina, and I reckon Peru and Bolivia will be more challenging on the language front, so it makes sense to at least have some language skills - on the other hand we always have our "point it" book!!).

Am glad that the "point to it" book is coming in handy. Talk slowly and loudly they will understand eventually!
