In Argentina

One of Jeff's dreams was to eat at Las Lilas. We made it tonight!

Check out this grill!
The team enjoying world class food!

In front of the Pink Palace...no sign of Madonna.
Flat Chad joined us on this trip. Long story. Will relate it later.

We arrived safely in Buenos Aires Sunday around 11:00 am. It was a very long ride down here. Sunday dinner was at the apartment of the missionaries. Three couples were there. We slept like babies last night. The course has been very challenging. Very different than what we are used to.

Tonight when we were finished we walked along the port. It was a lovely evening. Warm, sunny and lots of fun things to see. We toured an old frigate. We went to dinner at a famous place. Jeff and I have tried for two trips to get there. It is in the "1000 places to see before you die " book. It was excellent. However I threw down the challenge that the meat in La Boca will be better. We go there on Wednesday. It is interesting here. We saw luxury yachts today and just a couple of miles away are shanty towns.

Tomorrow we have a short day and then will see another part of town. Possibly visit a hospital we were invited to. Good night, more tomorrow.
