thanksgiving with the boys :: season 4 :: buenos aires

what is it with this place and the hot water? it's a moody as a cat in heat - haha - i said heat - which is exactly what our water needs. it either comes out in trickles or in buckets - but never consistent. that's the only complaint i have for this trip. otherwise - it's been great.

last night we danced the night away at club amerika - a new place for us - i'm not sure it was even here last year. multiple floors of dancing and balconies on which to socialize and people watch - it was a great spot and the music and scene was much better than at palacio.

we also went to san telmo during the day to do some antique shopping. michael went crazy for the antique seltzer bottles. i think he's taking home three. i just took a picture of them. due to time issues - we skipped the tango class - oh well.

today was a shopping day - tons and tons of great shops in our neighborhood. i treated myself to some housewares and a few pieces of clothing. lord only knows how i'll get the leather rugs home. yes indeed - more hides for the house - they are beautiful here so i opted to get a few for the living/dining rooms.

tonight we have plans to dine on the river and visit the local casino for some light gambling. after we'll hit the bars i'm sure. tonight is joshua, ben, and billy's last night in ba. they head back home tomorrow.

this is definitely a city i could visit time and time again. next time we may try to find a different company from which to rent the apartment - grrr on the hot water.
