We`ve just laid down after our 2nd day in Buenos Aires. Saying its *?!@!*!! hot is an understatement. Jason`s plain black tee now has a series of cute little designs all over it, compliments of dried salt from all the sweat we`ve been pouring out. (We are playing an ongoing game of the Rorschach inkblot test with it.) And despite the quart of condensed soy sauce that was poured over my (vegetarian) polenta lasgana and veggies last night, we couldn´t be having a better time!

We`ve already met travellers and local (porteños)alike who have been so kind in helping us along the way. We coupled up with some Solvenian toursist at the airport to split the cost of a taxi into the city and were welcomed with cold water, directions, and a city run-down by three very sweet locals, who invited us into their air-conditioned office-away-from home business/cafe when our cab dropped us off on the wrong block.

Today we explored San Telmo (the bohemian neighborhood) and perused around their delightful Sunday craft and antique fair. With far over 15 miles of walking under our belts the last few days and a couple $3.40 pesos 1.5 Liter beers, we are skipping the infamous BA nightlife for the night and retiring to bed. We miss you guys already and think/talk about you often.

¡Buenos noches mis amigos!
