Yep , BA is interesting all right, The City never sleeps !
Don't use Banco Frances ATM's on Sarmiento unless you want counterfit 100 Pesos notes (Double check your change from cafes and resturants as well for the same reason).
Pizzolla Tango show and dinner is work a look.
My wife & I did an amazing motorcycle tour of Agrentina earlier this year. http://www.buenosaires-caracas.com.ar/arg-ing.htm . If you have time I guarantee it will be a trip of a life time. We want to go back for more.

I saw a guy drop a huge BMW bike last night here in Caracas... He was kinda stuck under it. He wasnt moving when he dropped it... just tipped sideways n that was it... had no helmet or gear on either.... when he got up tho... it was pretty obvious that he was drunk.

Awesome you are bowling great.
Sounds like an crazy place to be. It must be frustrating being shut up in the venue & hotel though! look forward to seeing the pics and more updates.
Stay safe

Awesome
let us know how you find BA. I just couldn't get over it so have scheduled into my next trip.
Me and another friend with a screw loose are going to buy bikes in LA and ride em down. I plan to get down as far as about Bariloche. God and funds willing.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Yeah it was a little frustrating...
But... YAY!!!! In Argentina now
Was a shit flight from Venezuela tho, rough as again, and the guy that was sitting next to me had wings and snored... arrived here at 4.15am (B.A time).
Had a nap for a couple of hours cuz looked like a zombie.
Did a bit of shopping this morning, just checking up on e-mails etc now then going to go do a walking tour of BA. It is really hot today. Am soooo stoked to be back here and be outta that shit hole.
Drove thru the slums to get to the airport... omg... I have never seen such poverty in my life... its sad!! some kids tried to open the car door, I almost shat myself lol. we went that way because it was quicker than the motorway that was nose to tail. Venezuela has the WORST traffic!! Worse than Auckland.. worse than Wellington... took hours to go 10miles WITH police escorts stopping traffic at the lights to get us thru.
Only one more 14 hour flight to go *dance*... then... after a snooze... ill be out on two wheels again
~~~~~~~~~~~
From LA?¿?¿?
Whoa!! That´s quite a distance... make sure you have protection
stay away from the borders to columbia etc lol
Sounds like a shit load of fun tho!
I dont think im game enough to get on a bike or drive in these countries aye, they drive so crazy... love their horns... dont use indicators... (I guess on the open rd tho it´d be sweet!!)
Our driver to the airport in Venezuela was doing 160kph along the motorway in a ford explorer!! to make up time cuz they shut the motorway for the president to get thru and we got stuck for close to an hour on the onramp. heaps of security around the convoy (they closed the wrong side of the rd for them to go down)...They were foot down n nailing it too.
~~~~~~~~~~~
Just been on a city tour of BA... pretty cool!!!
Went to Recoleta (sp?¿) cemetery, saw evitas grave etc... some huge tombs there aye!! was lots of cats just like quasi said!!
got pics of them etc... looking forward to getting home, even tho enjoying myself here.... still counting down lol.
Went to La Boca earlier too, went into the football stadium there etc. was cool, holds 68,000 people. got pics in the stands n stuff.
done a fair bit of shopping today, found somewhere to get a pina colada here too woop woop
Its 3.30pm here now... and im sooo tired, going to have a nana nap soon.
Flight home is tomorrow at 11.45pm (Wednesday)... get home on friday morning at like 5.50am!! crazy. miss the whole of thursday?¿?¿!!! weird

~~~~~~~~~~~
