Hi!Went shopping with Mark today - well someone had to make him buy something instead of just looking at things he liked then telling everyone about them! After a bit of pondering over a couple of drinks at Limbo we headed back to a shop to buy a shirt! Mission accomplished! I mean come on I'm a shopaholic - if I don't buy something at least the person I'm shopping with has to! Had a good day - Mark has been here since we arrived - he's like part ...

Hi!After 3 quiet nights a big night out was definately on the horizon...that night was tonight! Not only was it our welcome dinner it was also Mark's last night in Buenos Aires!

This park is one of the biggest and most popular parks in the the entire city and I'm lucky enough to have it within walking distance of the hostel!
