Coming to you from Buenos Aires!! Leaving London was stressful in the end... But we made it to Argentina finally without any issues.

Plane trip was lovely and uneventful. Just what you want for a 14 hour flight really! After a couple of drinks in the lounge before e flight, we were ready to board. After watching Water for Elephants I took my usual 2 bottles of wine and 2 Phenergan antihistamines which gave me a blissful 10 hours sleep! Success! Arrived feeling mostly fresh, and waded our way through customs. Apparently you're not allowed to bring in anything worth more that $300USD into the country. In total. So after a slight panic attack we decided it wasn't worth worrying too much as they weren't really even bothered to check the xray machines anyway!

The rest of the crew arrived about 3 hours after us. It's been lovely to catch up, we've sampled many local beers, had steak for 2 out of 4 meals so far, and tasted the majority of the wine list at the restaurant last night...

Today the group of us I'd a tour organised through the hostel through the La Boca area of Buenos Aires. Saw the local futbal stadium where Maradona played (and Teves too I believe). Took many photos of the houses in the area, all colourfully painted and ramshackle in style. Apparently not somewhere you would travel to at night, but was great to see it as a group. Now, I'm just relaxing in the hostel bar with another beer, making plans for later. Will most likely involve beer, red wine and more steak... And I'm ok with that :)

Been having weird dreams. I'm thinking it's possibly because of the stress from the last couple of weeks, and that it's all finally sorted! Nothing to interest you sadly, but long and weird all the same.

People here are friendly - first thoughts of the city is that it's quite like Lisbon or Barcelona. Still not feeling like it's another whole continent! I'm expecting that to change ;)

Steak is plentiful, as is wine. And I've never seen so many people doing tango.
