Bienvenidos a Buenos Aires!

Well... we're finally here! I think today after class it really began to sink in that we're actually in Argentina. After about 12 hours in the sky it feels good to be back on land...even if it is far from home. Yesterday we arrived and we're greeted very warmly at the airport and by our families. We explored, ate dinner in the city, and practiced our Spanish. The general impression after the first day of classes is that we'll be fluent in no time at all. Let's hope so! After class we took a tour of the city-- the REAL Buenos Aires. We saw important sights like their capital and old ports, and we got the opportunity to have some time to explore. Later it'll be dinner, but now, we're finding souvenirs to bring home, so get excited! We sure are :)
