Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires is pretty cool. Not much to see for sight seeing in my opinion but plenty to do and the people are friendly. Last night I went with my US friends from the hostel and we went for a tango experience. Also met another IBMer from the UK at the hostel and he came along too. The odds of meeting another IBMer in a random country like Argentina are about 0.0058% (388,000 / 6,704,845,726) unless the maths is more complicated. Probably is because to be in the same country, staying at the same hostel at the same time is pretty random.

Here's a few shots of Buenos Aires.

The tango experience was organised by the hostel and the whole night costed about 90 pesos (40 NZD). First up we tried a few local red wines. Then we took a shuttle to some 5 star hotel for a tango lesson. Then went to dinner and had pizza. Pizza over here practically consists of just cheese. After that we went to a tango place and practiced what we learned. They also put on a few tango shows by the pros so it was a pretty cool night. We came back about 3am so I didn´t get much sleep last night as I had to check out by 11am.

I´m flying home at about 8pm but it´s been a very enjoyable trip.
