I have arrived safe and sound, made it to my Hostel, learned the supte (subway), signed up for a Spanish Language school, went grocery shopping and walked about 4 miles. Its been a good day. I am not sure I would have been that productive in the states. I didn't get robbed yet but have been aggressively panhandled. Its funny what I am finding that we take for granted in the states. I already miss things like good produce at the supermarket and clean streets with intact sidewalks. I am anxious to get started with classes. The language barrier is difficult but I've been getting along ok. I am already improving as I stumble through piss poor spanish.
Lots of good looking ladies down here. I think I need to worry less about getting robbed and more about making sure I don't hit by a car while I am checking out a good looking Porteno. The Hostel is having a BBQ tonight so I am going to partake in the festivities. Classes don't start until Monday so I have two days to get settled and get my bearings. Anyway, thats the update for now. Things are good and the weather here is fantastic..high 70's...and they have palm trees, which I found strange.
Thats the update for now....more later.
