The beach!!! This is not just any quiet beach. It is a good sized city about 400km (250mi) south of Buenos Aires. It is the largest city on the Atlantic costal strip of beaches and fishing towns in Eastern Argentina. There is a busy casino that draws many "porteños"(B.A. residents) for vacations year ...

En el fin día, nosotros fuimos a la Buenos Aires otra vez. Esta tiempo, nosotros fuimos a la playa, Mar del Plata. La Playa esta a muchos kilometros de largo. Es lo muy famoso y popular. Fuimos bronceado y nadando en el mar. Para almuezo, nosotros fuimos al restaraunte Heladeria Necochea. Era lo muy bueno. Te recomiedo que tu comprar un sandwich o un hamberguesa. Era delicioso! Tiene lo muchos dulces, helado, y chocolate!!! Despues almuerzo, tomemos un taxi al aeropuerto!

... l'auberge, et pour la première fois de ma vie j'ai fait un tour dans une Peugeot 504! Il y a plus de 20 ans toutes les flottes de taxi en Argentine ont commencé à s'équiper de ce modèle, qui est visiblement increvable puisqu'il y en a encore plein sur la route, avec des kilométrages de malade. Le modèle a été produit jusqu'en 2000 en Argentine, des années après la fin de la production européenne. Enfin, c'est vraiment drôle de faire un tour dans ...

... sur la france et sur mon voyage. Carolina aussi est sympa mais c'est une pile electrique, elle ne tient pas en place... ca a un avantage, en 4 jours elle m'emmenera dans beaucoup d'endroits et me presentera a bon nombre de ses ami(e)s. Des le premier jour, nous partons passer le WE dans la maison de campagne de l'une d'elles. Grosse fete pendant 2 jours, barbecue en veux-tu en voila, je re-apprend a faire des bracelets bresiliens entre autres ...

... pesos, bra bra! I naerheten ligger Balcarce, som visst er hjembyen til tidligere verdensmester (5-dobbelt) i bilkjoering (fra 40-tallet hehe), og vi fikk provekjoere banen med leiebilen vaar - artig! Vi hadde vel egentlig ikke trengt aa proeve noe "racetrack", bilfoererne saann ellers i dette landet synes ikke noe om fartsgrenser. Her kjoerer man i gjennomsnitt 40-60 km over det ...

... on the beach walk which have nice and amazing view while eating. I stayed at Hotel Pergamino for 25 ARS. The reception is the most wonderful woman who gives out a lot of tourist information for free. The rooms are mixed with shared bathroom and definitely worth the stay. I took the overnight bus to Puerto Merydin to watch the penguin colony.

Boo spent the evening running around with the other kids. Dinner was heavy hors d'oeuvres. There was certainly a lot to eat. After a few hours, S, Boo and I had all had enough (food, drink and socializing) so we called it a night and walked back to the hotel.

Mar Del Plata was a crazy time. We only spent 2 days there, both nights became out of hand. We nearly missed our bus as we didnt wake up until 15 minutes before it left. Luckily our hotel was right across the street from the bus depot. We made it. The pictures give you the idea of how crazy it was. Most of you know the story behind the first picture...yes, I am crazy sometimes.
