El comer!
November 7, 2006

Ah the food! There is absolutely everything one could possibly want and Sterling and I are determined to eat our way through Buenos Aires and from there, the rest of South America! Not only is it delicious, but the portions are out of this world and so are the prices. To top it off, they give you free stuff with every course. You don't even have to order dessert because they give you delicious sample-size servings with your coffee. You have to watch out for the breads though, they are to die for and you can
easily fill up of them before the 16oz steak. We've also been sampling the many wine-making regions of Argentina and have quite a ways to go still. Thank goodness we found a great gym today, just 4 blocks from our pad. It has a real neighbourhood feel and a variety of classes to kick my butt and keep me motivated. We plan to go every day except Sunday (when everything is closed in Buenos Aires) so that we can eat whatever we want and get real fit before enjoying the beaches of Uruguay and Brazil in the New Year. Apparently Uruguay is just 30 minutes by ferry from Buenos Aires - Amazing news since Buenos Aires is not exactly a beach town. Don't get me wrong, I'm really not complaining. I'll take 25-30 degrees and breezy anyday, beaches or no beaches. Sorry Canada, hope you're not too cold these days. Much love everyone!
