Nov. 11 Buenos Aires

Flew two hours this a.m to B. A. home to 13 mil people. Our hotel is close to most everything, but no ice machines or wash cloths sadly. We have been warned repeatedly about crime. When we took a guided walk around our hotel, some raggedy street children tried to steal a pocket watch from one of us. Rodg calls them varmints and really reminds you of slum dog mil.

This eve we were divided into 3 groups and were taken by bus to homes (apartments) of local residents for dinner. This is a hallmark of GCT- our tour company. Our hosts-a single mom and her mother, who spoke 5 languages, spoke very good Eng. We talked of politics, economy, and raising children. The older woman was from Croatia and so is one of our travelmates, so it was even more interesting. It was very fun.

Tomorrow ia a city tour for 4 hrs. and then time on our own. Then Tango lessons in the evening followed by a tango show and dinner. Will take lots of pics.

Thanks for reading and commenting. Love ya
