Weeeeek Threeee already! Whoah! It seems that fall has smacked Argentina straight in the face this week, the weather has gotten really cool! Our rooms have been fitted out with various types of heater, some of which look similar to the Sun...
A huge HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Esther, with whom we celebrated her 19th Birthday this week... for about three days! There was a party, and a night out and another party, complete with oreo's, lays, two delicious cakes and Chinese food!
Other than that, this week in Buenos Aires was fairly chilled, with Spanish lessons continuing and volunteering becoming more and more exciting and even more and more exhausting! We've also spent more time exploring the city we're calling home. A trip to La Boca where we saw the famous brightly coloured buildings, tango dancers in the street and naturally an invisible man. We saw dozens of mannequins in this very touristy area as well as La Boca Stadium where some of us will be travelling to in the near future to see the Super Classico, River vs. Boca game!
The night life in BA is also INCREDIBLE! The Roadhouse being a focal point for pre gaming and gathering before taking on the city under the starst. After meeting many new friends at the R2A Pizza Night, the Roadhouse is busy as ever with new faces and more fun almost constantly - all hours of the day and night! This fun however has come at a cost, with both Megan and Rowan sustaining war wounds and everyone, especially Connor has a story to tell!
As a group we've also braved the cinema to see Thor in 3D. Unsure if we would be sitting through 2 hours of Spanish that we could only semi understand, we queued up with EVERYONE else in BA to buy a ticket... and popcorn.. and icecream... and M&M's... To our delight we throughly enjoyed the film in English, and have yet another story to write home about!
Best Wishes, Sarah!
