Back to Buenos Aires

Since I had until 11:30 a.m. before the taxi came to pick me up to go to the airport, I wish I had checked into going bird watching early in the morning (5:30 a.m.) That is the best time to see birds in the rain forest, most notably the toucan. Instead, I woke to the birds singing outside my window and enjoyed listening to the brook gently cascading into a small waterfall. And practiced my Spanish on TV.

I arrived back in Buenos Aires in the late afternoon and met up with Kathy and Carol Jo who had spent the day touring around the city with Argentinian friends. We then headed out to dinner at El Mirasol with our friends and enjoyed a feast beyond compare. Our friends introduced us to Argentine cuisine of the finest fare, parilla, delicious grilled meats and sides accompanied with a fine malbec. What a magnificent meal!
