weekend!

This weekend was absolutely wonderful. Of course I got lost a few times, but I had a lot of fun. Friday we went out to a club, the clubs here apparently don't open until 2:30 AM! We danced and took pictures and ordered drinks and stayed out way too late.

Saturday we were all so tired that we slept half the day and then went to el tigre, which is the delta named after the tigers that used to be there but are now extinct. It was a really beautiful day to be on the water even though we were all half asleep :)

After sleeping 15 hours last night and most of today, I woke up well-rested and ready to go. Samantha, Erin, Wambui, and I went to the San Telmo market today. I could not believe how HUGE it was! just the longest street completely full of vendor after vendor selling their handmade crafts. I made friends with Captain Jack Sparrow and gave him a kiss on the cheek. It was so much fun!

Things are looking up now, I've taken the bus several times mostly successfully and used the subte (subway) to get to the market today. The weather has become absolutely beautiful..the sun is out every day and it's just perfect fall weather. It's really funny though because people here think it's extremely cold when it's around 60-65 degrees. They bundle up with scarves and gloves and coats like it's closer to 20 degrees.

I get to see my andyroo tonight and I'm super excited that I'm getting better at navigating this giant city. What a great way to end the weekend :)
