Lions and Tigers and Bears Elephants...oh my!

So I know I have a lot of catching up to do with this blog and I will get on it when I get home on Sat...but I had to post what I did today. AMAZING!!!!!

Dale dale Boca!

Tonight Boca is playing and you definitely don't need to be anywhere near a TV or a radio to know the score...every time there is a goal this city BLOWS up. I mean this quite literally as the yelling and honking is one-upped by fireworks...FIREWORKS...from rooftops. People sure do love their futbol here.

Tomorrow is my last day of school aka be expecting some lovely posts FULL of pictures of the falls.

Just hit me..

So tonight during the taxi ride home from eating tacos at CBC with Kira it really hit me...I leave this place in 18 days. I started my list of "Qué Necesito Hacer antes de que Me Voy" list today. One of my Mark's girls laughed when I used "tipo" today as a true Argentine. Kira and I were at our ridiculous best. I gave a cup of coffee to the man who waves at me every day on the corner of Armenia and El Salvador. Had my daily totally average conversation with my wonderful licuado maker at school. I passed my favorie beautiful french looking building that splits two streets...you know the one. Buenos Aires and I started out with kind of a rocky relationship, but with time I really fell head over heels for this place. My heart hurts.

Vanessa 21 at midnight!

Hey everyone Ryan here. In Buenos Aires with Vanessa and she's turning 21 at midnight. Anyway 21 isn't a huge deal here plus it's a school night and all, but we're having a mini power hour at her place. Basically that means pizza and beer.

Anyway you can call during our mini-power hour and wish her happy birthday. It's made it easy via the wonders of Skype. You just call 520-829-1109 (it's just a local call for you!) Try to call between 8 and 9 Arizona time tonight. That's midnight to one here.

And then you all owe her a shot back in AZ at the end of June.

Best,
Ryan
