Buenos Aires

Ok so once again, this blog is like 2 weeks delayed, but I'm still trying to get caught up from the whole computer not working thing. We went to Buenos Aires for the weekend and it was amazing! The city is huge! It's like the second or third biggest city in South America and its total population is around 15 million. Every building is at least like 6 stories high. As far as the people go, they're pretty similar to Uruguayans, but don't say that to any Uruguayans or they'll get mad at you. (found that out first hand) But back to Argentina, we went on a tour of the city on one of the first days we got there and it was really cool! I don't know why but for some reasons I really love big cities. It just feels like there so much to do and so many different people it really and so many big buildings...I don't know I just like them. We also went to the national cemetery. It's really cool. In Uruguay and Argentina they have national cemeteries where many of the rich and famous families of the country are buried. The cemeteries are huge, and in their own way, they are like a museum. It's strange because I felt like I was in a city, yet it was only cemeteries. On sunday, we went to a church that the Walkers have connections with, and I got to meet a ton of really cool people. I stayed and talked for a couple hours after church, and I had a really good time. Thanks to facebook, we'll be able to keep in touch too! On Monday, we we visited the zoo in Buenos Aires. It was a lot of fun, and they had some strange animals like capybaras. Then we went home and returned the crazy, busy schedule that has become my life.
