Arrived in Buenos Aires

I have arrived in Buenos Aires after a rather uneventful trip, or perhaps i´m just jaded by long distance travel and it doesn´t seem exciting anymore. I flew from Vancouver to Houston, enjoyed a 3 hr layover and then was off on my 10 hr flight to Buenos Aires. The only thing I found interesting about Houston was that everything was larger such as walkways and bathroom stalls and they had defibrillator stations all over the place, just in case for example you were eating ribs, had a heart attack, but hadn´t finished your ribs.

On the bus from the airport into town I started talking to a guy from the US but had family in BA. He asked me what I did and i mentioned I was starting with PWC in Sept. He said his brother worked at PWC in BA for years and just retired in June. He pointed out the PWC building and I thought it might be fun to check it out. I walked around Buenos Aires for a while and half heartedly tried to find the PWC building since it was in the direction I was going anyway. I think I found the right building, but decided not to go in because there was a security guard waiting to shoe away backpacking trouble makers such as myself. I couldn´t have really done much there anyways other than stare at the logo in the lobby, or maybe I could have tried to jump in on some audits, but i´m sure i´ll get enough in Sept.

Tonight I have signed up for a tango lesson so I should probably stretch before that. I also have to find some dinner, perhaps i´ll try some of that Argentinean beef. I´m not sure how long I will spend in BA as it just seems like a big city, but perhaps that is the jetlag talking.

Note: I am not going to spend a lot of time proofreading my posts because I don´t want to spend all my on the computer, so everyone will just have to ignore any bad grammar and spelling. Dad and Frank this means you should refrain from posting "helpful" comments.
