A Heart Breaking Work of Staggering Stupidity

Here's a list of some stupid things we've done since getting here:

• Justin leaving a check card in an ATM machine on the second day
• Forgetting an ID to pay with a card at a bar (though awesomely using a business card instead)
• Me leaving my check card in an ATM machine on the third day (though awesomely running back and having the guard hand it to me)
• Forgetting the address of our boss' new apartment (though awesomely going up and down Santa Fe buzzing every building with a 10A apartment until we found it)
• Me leaving my check card in an ATM machine on the tenth day (nothing really awesome bout that)

I guess the moral of the story is that there is something about the ATMs down here.

Anyways, it was a wonderful weekend down here. Walked around the Recoleta Cemetery which I have to say is one of the cooler cemeteries I've been in. Instead of a big grassy field, its a couple of city blocks full of really ornate tombs and crypts with stained glass, statutes, trees, and all sorts of stuff that the dead people must really appreciate. And mom you'll appreciate this, I took about nine hundred photos of the doors though no wooden ones in stone.

Also checked out the Tres de Febrero park, which celebrates overthrowing somebody (I think). Its a huge park with a big blocked off street that goes around a big lake with tons of trees. There were like 2,000 people hanging out, playing soccer, jogging, biking and rollerblading (yeah, apparently they still rollerblade here).

Perhaps the best news is today we found a really cool apartment to rent right down in Recoleta. Its close to parks, cafes, bars, the cemetery and not too far from the office. We'll move in the next day or two and I can finally unpack my bags.

Hasta la vista
