AND WELCOME TO BUENAS AIRES!!!!!!! what a livable city! here we caught up with joey and joined her for one last bender before she headed back to Melbourne and back to reality. so we basically spent a week wining and dining with joey and her mates from the machu p�chu trek. and this entailed..............

seeing a tango show at the famous cafe tortoni (over red wine and steak) TICK

taking a tour of the casa rosada (the pink house where evita made her famous speech from the balcony) TICK

attending a football match TICK

staying out till 10am in the morning BA style (somehow we never quite made it to breakfast a the hostel!)TICK

eating lots of pastries and drinking coffee TICK

visiting the colourful houses of caminita in la boca TICK

cruising around a massive silver and leather market TICK

going to see EVITA'a grave TICK

shopping along Sante Fe TICK

consuming copious amounts of cheap but damn good red wine with every meal TICK

eating massive steaks everyday TICK (with the exception of sally who ate a LOT of pasta and bread and dulce de leche....mmmmmm.......dulce de leche)

so all in all Buenas Aires was a very enjoyable experience. but we are now, however, paying for all those sleepless nights and have had to escape to the lakes district to recover!
