Buenos Aires Arrival

What a long day! After about an hour of sitting on the plane in Miami we finally took off around 12:30 AM. It was interesting to see the lights as we flew over Cuba. We were served dinner, then I was out like a light until morning before we landed in Buenos Aires. Larry was able to sleep off and on and envied my ability to sleep so soundly.

We went through Customs without a problem. We had a short wait for Nico, the driver from the B&B, to pick us up. I had a picture of Nico in my iPhone because the B&B owner had emailed it to me, so he was easy to spot when he arrived.

Our B&B is more like an apartment. We actually have 3 bedrooms, living area, kitchen, and bath. The kitchen is stocked with yogurt, eggs, cereals, milk, fruit, juices etc. We were also provided with a fresh baked cake which is a typical Argentine treat. It is very similar to King's cake. The apartment is usually rented out by bedroom, but because the owner is out of the country for a month she rented the whole place to us for the regular price of one room.

It is rainy here today and is supposed to be the same tomorrow. It looks like we will have nice weather after that. It is the beginning of spring here - warming up each day. December and January are supposed to be fairly hot here.

Tomorrow we officially start our sight-seeing of the city. I'll try to get Larry to post to the blog as he is quite descriptive in his writings. You'll certainly notice a distinctive style of writing if he does a post!
