Hola amigos,
I said good-bye to my host in Chile and headed to the airport at 5:00AM. I ended up having a 6 hour delay so I did not arrive into Argentina until 4:30 P.M.
I arrived at the Feir Hotel and my friends Dave and Yolanda from Chicago were waiting for me. Dave and Yolanda came to Argentina for the U2 concert and were kind enough to let me stay with them at their hotel since I was going to be in town as well.

I see that you can appreciate good food. That is one of the best things of Argentina. When I travelled there, I went not only to Buenos Aires but to other provinces as well. In one of the rosario hotels I stayed in, the food they served was delicious: Steak, beef and homemade pasta, the specialties of Argentine dishes!
