Buenos Aires, Argentina

I haven't had a moment to write in front of a computer, although I have been jotting in a journal ...sometimes old fashioned is the best way to do things. When I have been on the computer it has been to keep in touch at home and then only for moments at a time, to get email out then run. I guess that's just how I am when I travel...I don't take a lot of time out. Then, like last night, I will just collapse in exhaustion and sleep for 12 straight hours, and feel better the next morning.

And now I'm in Buenos Aires. I already did Iguazu Falls...incredible, even at 5X below normal with the drought currently felt here. I now await E's return to the departamento y ya...a ver la ciudad. It is actually really hard to sit and write this in English as I haven't operated in hardly any English at all since last Tuesday, and nothing I've experienced has been in English. My journal isn't in English. But I'll get it all out somehow, maybe just as captions to the photos...which won't be published until after I get back next week.

But I am still alive and enjoying my vacation very much. I've had a lot of good, necessary, reviving Time. It's been good for me. Hope not to have to wait 6 more years for another one...but maybe not such a big trip next time. However, I have a feeling MQE may not let me leave again!!!! He's going to be so ready to go back to work and take "vacation" from the kids come Monday...pobrecito.
