Off to Uruguay

January 22nd, 2008

Things have been going well here in Buenos Aires.  Emily and I have been keeping up with our training for the SF half-marathon by doing a 5, 10, and a 4 mile run since we´ve been here.  We found a great park that we can run to that has a one mile loop that is packed with other people running, biking, and roller blading.  On Sunday, Emily and I went over to San Telmo and walked around the Sunday market there.  The San Telmo area has lots of cobblestone streets and a very distinct look and feel.

Unfortunately, Emily got sick the other day (our guess is the ice in her drinks…) and spent most of yesterday recooperating in bed in the hostel.   No need to worry, though, she is already completely recovered and back to normal.

Tomorrow we are off to Punta del Este, Uruguay.  We have to wake up at 7am to catch our boat to Montevideo (3 hour boat ride and then 2 hour bus from there).  Wish us luck as we haven´t been able to get up before 11 all week!
