Hangover 101

Sunday we headed to San Telmo markets to get overdosed on antiques. People sure do pay a fine price for vintage locks, gramaphones, tins and soda dispensers. I found some local designer shops that sold clothes and bags and Glen was mighty pleased to indulge me. Luckily for me there are plenty of park benches on the street. After, we headed over to a park in La Boca for respite from the crowds and buskers. The afternoon was taken up with espanola study as I had the best intentions of being the A1 student on Monday. However... we became friends with a scottish couple. We went back to the very popular Parilla (steak) restaurant El Desnivel and mixed vino tinto with Mojito, gin and my fave beer in the whole wide world Quilmes. After dinner we headed to a bar and met a Scot looking for a job in "security" (wink, wink- personally I think he was a real life 007 but maybe that´s the cloud of the mojito), and a New York City girl who´s claim to fame was that she´s given Paris Hilton a bikini wax (she´s a brazillian local). We had a great night out and got to bed at about 3 so wagged our 'pay as you go' spanish class. I felt like a naughty school kid so this morning I promptly went out and bought a new english/espanola dictionary and I´m currently trying to read the local newspaper. The spanish equivalent of HJ´s and coke for hangovers is definitley emapandas and coke. I feel great! 1 more day in BA and off to Igauzu! See you there!
