The Nightlife

It really is true we got ice cream at 3 am and the place was hopping! At almost every eatery here you can get GOOD coffee. At an helado place they even give you cream, cocoa powder, and cinnamon with your dioppio! The helado is sooo good too. It's so funny, for as energentic as the people are every other time of day from about 3~5 pm, practically nothing happens! It's siesta! They claim it's because of the heat, but if that's true the whole country of Japan would shut down all summer! Someone told me that in the hottest months (around Feb) things just don't open at all. Things are so relaxed here, I'm having a hard time remebering to do all my homework...

Buenos Aires, Argentina

So,we finally made it here. My parents and some friends and I are all haning out in Buenos Aires. It's so strange it feels so cosmopolitan and european but then there are kids begging and it feels a little run down. Plus the sun is on the wrong side of the sky. I guess since I've never been on main-land Europe I can't really say, but maybe it's like a city in a more eastern european country. It has so much history,and you can feel it, but at the same time it feels alive and new, but old and tired. My words aren't doing it justice, and I'm a little jetlagged...I'll take pictures and get back later. It's about 3:30 pm and time for siesta so we can stay out all night! Ciao!
