Day 154
Jack and I spent most of the day wandering around Rosario today. We quickly realized that we should have left yesterday as there is not much for tourists to do here. At some point in the afternoon, sloth caught up with both of us and we decided to check… Read More »
1. What one thing you wish you had brought from US?
When I first started my trip, I wished I had brought some warm clothes. I figured Peru was near the equator, so it would be hot all the time there. I didn't even bring a long sleeved shirt. That plan backfired bigtime. Most of… Read More »

Day 153
Between extremely long sessions of eating and drinking outside, Jack and I took a long walk around town today. The city is nicer than I previously thought. Yesterday, I didn't venture too far from my hotel, and I thought Rosario was pretty run down. I guess I'm just staying… Read More »

Day 145-147
The cruise really drained me. I was "burning the candle at both ends" for two solid weeks, so I needed some time to get caught back up on my blog, photos, and most importantly, sleep. For the last three days, I walked around Buenos Aires a bit and hung… Read More »
