the good, the bad and the ugly.
Righto, Me and Buenos Airies haven´t had the best of relationships so far. don´t get me wrong, it´s a great city but i think i am actually looking forward to leaving. i caught up with my friend helen from melbs and have been hanging out with her and other assorted argentines and a bunch of good folk that i met in the hostel. me and helen decided to take a quick jaunt to uruguay to see what there is to see, only to get there to discover that not just nearly every hostel was booked out, but that EVERY hostel, campsite, hotel etc. wass booked out. hmm. so we caught the ferry back and went our seperate ways. i hopped into a taxi with no money, so i asked the taxi driver to stop at a bank. he stopped, i went to the atm, then he fucked off with my bags. bastard. bastard. bastard. everything is sorted now, i had to change my tickets to may the 2nd, but i´m coming home. broke. ah well. shit happens. since then, i have seen some great sights, eaten some brilliant meat (i even put on an asado, argentine bbq, with a friend), had some good fun and inhaled my bodyweight three times over in carbon monoxide. mmmm.

Heya,
pretty crap about you bags, I hate taxi drivers. Hope you didn’t lose anything that was really special. Otherwise sounds fun, have a safe trip back to bonnie scotland.
Miss ya,
Katie.
