Mi Buenos Aires querido

We walked sooo much in Bs As

We visited the Casa Rosada(is like the white
house but pink)

And we feed the hungry palomas(mi sis was not very

in to the birds attacking her to get some corn)

La casa rosada

from right to left, cousin(johi) sister (Mara) and my

gigantic old old old trees in the middle of

the city

The jardin japones was so beautiful

The cemetery in Recoleta


we loved the shows while traveling in the sub way

This is the tree where we had one of our first

date with jay 3 years ago, we sat down there and had

a great time watching the sunset

And we loved Rosario

and loved pastelitos

and loved sweating bullets walking for mils (well not really)


and we played cards forever and a day

loved the view of my home town by the river

and loved the green, never ending, beautiful fields


and the first 2 weeks of the trip seemed to flew by so fast, we got to spend lots of time with

my beautiful fam and it seemed weird to be talking to them in person, and every body keeps asking if I'm home sick, and my eyes get field with

tears from the bottom of my hart thinking about this little place, yes I'm more home sick than ever before and how could i not be if i have the most wonderful memories hiding around every corner of the city

and then we took off ..............

and after a 23 hr trip..........

we got to gave them lots of Hugs

and we got to walk besides the Parana river


and i got lots of this!!!


and Jay liked the mariposa

and we pretty much laughed at each other most of the time and we couldn't have

had a better time together, we just enjoyed every second

of it!!!! (I think Mara, my sister, is the funiest person on earth)(no joke)

Lets start from the beginning

Thank you so much Aleisha for the idea!!!!

Feliz 2009 !!!(Rose Parade)

Asi fue como dormimos.

El estaba feliz con su mate en mano.

Mi carruaje favorito.

increiblemente increible.
Asi que este ano para ano nuevo decidimos hacer algo cuando todo el mundo se fue a dormir nosotros manejamos hasta Burbank ,a las 11 de la noche llegamos con nuestras bolsas de dormir y reservamos un lugar en la vereda para poder dormir a la noche,cebe unos mates,tomamos chocolate caliente, pero nada era suficiente para calentarnos,yo tenia puesto 2 pantalones 3 remeras un buzo y una campera y arriba mi bolsa de dormir,Jay estaba entretenido con un chico que encontro y ellos empezaron a hablar de autos asi que yo me puse a leer,no dormimos nada habia autos tocando bocina y gente tocando cornetas la policia con las sirenas era imposible,la manana fue peor,a eso de las 5 cuando penzamos que el sol iba a empezar a caletarnos se puso mas fresco que en antartica!!! ho boy!!!!asi que jay fue a buscar algo pa comer y despues a eso de las 9 el desfile empezo,todo el mundo aplaudia,habia musica todo el tiempo,y no se si se puede ver arriba pero los carruajes fueron increibles,si miras bienn de cerca te das cuenta que todo lo que tiene el carruaje esta hecho de flores o semillas o cosas asi,naturales,fue increible,mi carruaje favorito fue uno que se trataba de un casamiento en india,mostraban el novio y la novia en el elefante y todas las tradiciones,en fin nos divertimos muchisimo y esperamos poder ir el ano que viene tambien!!!!
