Packed my bags in Cordoba and arrived in the "Paris of South America"...
Left the camera cord behind, so I won't have pictures for a few days.
BUENOS AIRES...(tranlation= Good Air) ...Buenos Aires sounds nicer no?
All week-end there have been celebrating the arrival of Primavera/Spring :)
On Sunday, ALL high school and university students hung out at local park and have a little festival. Today Monday, they celebrated by having NO CLASSES.
I'm finding out there are a lot more Holidays celebrated here. It makes the school year look like
the Month of November in the Nothshore School District :)
Student Day, Teacher Day, Professor's Day, Day of the Child, and the list goes on...!
Btw: because of the reversal of seasons (Argentina is below the equator), school stars in Mid-March thru the end of November.
My studio apartment is on the 9th floor. It's cute and I have a little patio...all the conveniences of home in 600sq ft...the only thing I'm missing is an OVEN! The great news is that in this city ...everything IS DELIVERED TO YOUR DOOR...via roller blades, bikes, carts...I can have my groceries, order dinner...and I don't mean just pizza...I mean a full range of restaurant food, a steak, fresh pasta, even ice cream. The ice cream is delivered in scooters with a cooler in the back...and then it is delivered to your apartment in individual mini coolers....gonna have to order some just so I can take a picture for the blog... :)
I can also take my clothes to the laundromat or dry cleaners, and they both home deliver.
Now that's service.
