Oh my gosh my feet have swollen. I have to go out again in an hour so I am too scared to take my shoes off incase they dont go back on again!
Fell asleep at 9pm and woke at 8am having slept like a log! Didnt even hear the others in my dorm come in! Had brekkie and then a wonder around until I joined a free tour at 11. Had to run a little to get there in time so was V sweaty when I got there. Tour was really cool though. Basically went back to the places I saw yesterday but with explanation which is always good!
Met a few people on the tour who I then went to find lunch with. Steak and chips. Woohoo! Cost about 3 pounds but wasnt amazing steak. Just means I have toi have steak tomorrow too!
After lunch we split and me and Amanda went to Recoleta to see the Cemetry where Eva Peron is. CRAZY place! The tombs and sarcophagi are crazily ornate and the whole place is like walking through a city in minature. Where all the buildings are only one story high. Bizarrely pretty and picturesque too.
Back at the hostel now but I have booked onto a tangolesson/show/dinner combo thing for in a bit so my poor feet have to deal with that later! Also added another night onto my stay in BA so that I can go on a day trip across to Uruguay on monday which I will probably do with Emily who I met on the tour this morning.
I hope it will make you all happy to know that it rained A LOT here today. Naturally I didnt have a brolly or mac and I was wearing brand spanking new white pumps so I currently look a little bedraggled!
Since the internet here is free I will probably write daily until the situation changes which is nice huh!?

lisa moore You certainly aren't wasting any time are you.... loving the updates.... can't believe you're that far away all grown up....it rained here today too... not much though....it will be weird when your mum and dad are in Cairo, you are where ever you are in March and I'm in New Zealand.... x x x x
Martin Rhodes Take sandwiches for the Uruguay trip.... Colonia is a fascinating place but if you go to the same restaurant as us you will still be hungry! Have fun and hope it has stopped raining. M
Carol Livingstone Enjoy the steak it is about the only decent food in Argentina. In Colonia, Bob and I acutally ended up with lots of food always with a friend egg on top. Keep on enjoying.
