Well this last week in BA has been quite entertaining! Sometimes I forget I am in BA and think I am still in La Paz! As I havn´t written in a week I don´t really know where to start so to sum it up, here´s what I´ve been up to:
Watched movies and hung out in the hostal (I´ve seen Black Swan, Despicable Me, Charlie St Cloud and Due Date)
Evita Museum
Buenos Aires Zoo (was really nice, they have every animal you can think of! Seriously! Llamas, deers, rhinos, hippos, giraffes, elephants, crocodiles, hienas, tapirs, cows, zebras, insects, etc!)
Shopping ( I had to update my backpacker wardrobe!)
Hanging out in the hostal again (it´s just too easy when breakfast is served until midday and you can get rid of your hangover in front of the tele)
Hostal gossip (I won´t publish this on my blog!)
Ate amazing steak and drank good wine at Don Ernesto (Mmmh! I shared a bife de lomo (tenderloin steak) and a bife de chorizo (rump steak) with Simone and they were both really yummy! Perfectly red inside and tender! Papa, the wine we had was Cabernet Sauvignon Norton 2010 from Mendoza which was really good and Malbec Xero also from Mendoza which wasn´t as good! We then were given god knows how many Limoncello shots after dinner, on the house!)
Clubbing in Kika (Very fun although got a drink poored down me when some guys got into a fight!)
Visited the Congress Palace (Pretty, on a plaza with hundreds of pigeons, just like Trafalgar Square used to be. I took the Subte line A and this line uses really old trains, from the 50s, the inside was all wooden and very different from the other lines! I didn´t feel like I was in BA in 2011!)
Malma Art Museum (Very nice but a bit small! Nice building too, reminded me of being back at uni and looking at different architecture!)
Ate more amazing steak and drank more good wine at Don Ernesto (the waiter recognised use and came over to kiss and hug us which was really nice! I had steak with potatoes in a creamy sauce! Delicious!!! And the wine we had was Cabernet Sauvignon Alamos 2009, also very nice! And again more Limoncello!)
Drinking in Palermo
Clubbing in Kika again (even more fun than the first time)
More hostal gossip (...)
Cinema (went to see the Hangover 2, sooo funny!)
The hostal I´m staying at is quite small so everyone kind of knows each other which is really nice. I have 2 days left in BA, so tomorrow night we are going to La Bomba again and then probably out clubbing and on Tuesday we might go to a tango show. Oh yes that´s right, I have to visit things during the day.. hmm, well, we´ll see where that takes us!
