Last Days...

We left Puerto Madryn on the 1st Class bus - fully reclining seats, 4 different movies and bingo games made the ride pass quickly. Buenos Aires is hotter than we remember, its 30º today and sort of humid. My feet are sore from walking everywhere. A 9 hour walk to and from Palmero and almost 7 hours today looking for the perfect wine holder. The city is busy after the small towns we´ve been in for the past month. But its exciting, with tango dancers, street venders and multiple icecream stores to chose from.

We´ve pretty much just shopped and ate since we arrived here. Our hostel is busy and full of young people, so we tend to avoide it. But its conveniently located within walking distance of most everything and the room is confortable and clean. It currently looks like we were robbed, with clothes and bags and papers strewn everywhere in preparation for packing tomorrow.

We´re just taking it easy until our flight tomorrow. We saw most of the tourist sights last time except for the Japonese Gardens, which we visited yesterday as a break from the shopping (and walking). For a $0.33US we bought a baggie of food and fed the koi in the ponds. One more trip to the grocery store for some last minute dulce de leche is all that we have to do. And perhaps a trip to the icecream parlor for some last minute dulce de leche icecream too...
