Where's our Internet?!!

Hi all - just a quick post to say that I am now coming to you live from McDonald's ... yes, that is the closest place to our apartment that has Internet.   Unfortunately, our landlady at the new place "forgot" to pay the Internet bill for 2 months, so they turned it off.   It's now paid (we think, but can't confirm), but given how everything else works around here, it still won't be on for the next century!


So another hiatus on the blogging til I won't smell like burgers while doing it.


Good day today though - it was beautiful out and we walked to the fine arts museum (Museo de Belles Artes)/Floralis sculpture.  The museum was very cool - paintings from Rothko, Monet, Manet, Picasso, Chagall, Berni (look him up if you have time - he is Argentine and his work was pretty fascinating) Rodin sculptures, etc.   We also saw the Floralis sculpture, which is a giant flower sculpture that actually opens and closes in the morning and evening.  I will post pictures next time since I forgot my cord.  


Tomorrow we may or may not go to a 10k run/walk that we're told is more of a social event. Basically, you bring everything you need to enjoy an asado (bbq), leave it all at the starting line, and then either run or walk in a circle til you reach your utensils back at the starting spot.  After that, you enjoy a delicious asado which luckily we've had great experiences with.  I'm afraid that if I walk, when I get to the finishing line there will be no more asado!!!  I might just have to attempt to run ... should be interesting, but probably not a good idea to run that length as a beginner?  We shall see.


The apartment has been mostly fine so far, minus the Internet ordeal and some new "friends" that joined us on Thursday (friends = cucarachas).  Don't worry, nothing 2 New Yorkers can't handle.  


Ok, I think my clothes smell like coffee/burgers so I am going to hit the road.  We'll hopefully be up and running for real very shortly!
