We are now in Buenos Aires, Argentina!

This is no mean feat as getting to BA from Central America is a huge leap and means crossing the Darien Gap (look it up)... one of the most dangerous land borders in the world. Of course, we flew so the potential kidnapping/ransom scenarios meant little to us.
It is incredible to be in this city after so many months in Mayan America. BA feels, and acts, European and the Spanish sounds Italian. Steak, football, Tango and corrupt goverment seem to be the local staples... although Nat would probably add shopping which has kept us busy for the first few days.
We ran all over town trying to find and apartment... but we now have one, have found a school, made contact with various people thanks to Suzanne and are starting to settle in.
