Buenos Aires - Traveling
We were up on good time and packed our bags up. We used Uber Black in order to ensure that we were not waiting too long for our ride to the airport.
We did not need to worry about time too much because the ticket counter did not open for another 30 min after we arrived.
We were able to get our tickets, go through customs and security without any delays.
We finally decided to order food from Wolfgang Pucks and started placing my breakfast order when the woman behind the counter decided that at 10:32 we could no longer order breakfast.
We headed back to a spot that was serving breakfast and lunch. I decided to try the Columbian traditional breakfast of beef rib and potato soup with an egg. Bill had a roasted beef sandwich.
My tummy began rumbling, so i spent some time in the ladies room before taking a dose of Imodium before our 6 hour flight.
I was asleep before we took off, which ended up happening 45 min after the scheduled time. Not really sure why since we had all boarded on time...
During the flight I napped while Bill worked on photos. After our meal I spend my time catching up on the blog and reading while Bill watched a couple of movies.
I am not going to write ahead and assume we have no issues upon landing like I did a few days ago!
Well, all was smooth with our landing at the international airport in Buenos Aires. It was strange that people were milling about the aisle and opening the overhead bins before we stopped, but otherwise it was all good. Customs and baggage were a breeze, and we had no trouble connecting with our guide Nilas.
The trip to Madero Hotel took around 45 min without too much traffic. We are in one of the newer areas of the city and are very near the water/port.
Although it is after 10 pm here, it feels like 8 pm for us. So, we walked along the water and had an antipasto platter and bocconci, basil and tomoatoes for dinner along with a good bottle of vino. It was great just to hang out by the water in the heat and unwind after a hard day of travel!
