well this looks like the end of my trip, it has been really fun and amazing experience. one thing it has done for sure is confirm that i want to come back as soon as possible. although it lasted only three weeks they were great. i am ready to move on to panama, i am excited to see what awaits me there (malaria).

right now i am sitting in my hostel waiting until seven tonight when my plane leaves. i hate this waiting stuff, it drags on forever. as it turned out i didnt go to iguazu falls up north, fortunately i happened across a couple of people that just returned from there and they told me that there was hardly any water. so i got luck by stumbling across that little piece of information, otherwise i would have sat on a bus for eighteen hours (one way) just to see some waterfalls that were weak due to the lack of water. so instead i hung around buenos aires, it is a really cool city. it has a lot of really neat architecture and an amazing night life. they dont even leave for the bars until two or three in the morning, and when they do go out they have a good time. although i must say that i am ready to come home, i cant keep up with these people.

i have been having steak dinners every night for the past five days, the kicker is that it only cost five dollars for a porterhouse and six dollars for a tenderloin. of course that doesnt include the wine which is an extra three dollars. so on average i had a massive steak and a bottle of wine and a salad for less than 10 dollars every night. needless to say i am ready to have some good pasta or a hamburger, i dont think that i can eat anymore steak.

well when i get home i will post the pictures from my trip, believe me i have a lot of them. so hopefully you (whoever you are) will get to see the pictures from this trip in the next couple of days.
