Updates

It's been a while, I don't have a camera, school is getting more and more busy as the semester is ALMOST over (crazy how fast this has gone by), and therefore my little blog has suffered the consequences...SORRY!

A few updates:
  • Just got back from the northern part of Argentina, on the border of Brazil, where we went to see the Iguazu waterfalls...it was AMAZING and a blast.  Friends took pictures so I'll try and get those from them.
  • Today I leave for our spring break!!  Going to Mendoza and Salta, two areas in the north-west region of the country...it's supposed to be amazing and I can't wait!
  • I head home on the 29th of April!  Crazy
  • I may or may not contract yellow fever from being in the rainforest...we shall see
  • I still haven't put up pictures from when my Ma and Weezie were here...sorry, I'll try to soon
  • As I'm sure you know from my posts, meat is god here in Argentina, and last week the President made herself a victim of great hatred from the lower classes and the people who live in the country when she put a high tax on meat.  There was lots of protesting, people blocking the streets banging pots and pans, a fight in the main plaza of the city, and I even took part in the noise-making
  • Went to a play the other night...everything was in Spanish...I couldn't understand much of it...
  • I love this country but I can't wait to go home on the same hand
  • I'll be sure to post after/during spring break!
Love you all!
