Going back to Argy-Town

I’m going home to Buenos Aires this Sunday. I’ll be meeting my mom, sister, and brother, and staying with my 85-year-old grandma in her apartment in Belgrano for 10 days.

Last time I was in Argentina was more than 4 years ago when I went with Blue for nearly three weeks. We visited family and old friends I hadn’t seen in 13 years, bought boxes of alfajores, ate the most amazing meals, and even visited Patagonia for a few days to see the glaciers.

Not sure if I’ll be blogging from BA – depends on the Internet cafes’ capabilities -- so I’ll wish everyone a feliz ano nuevo.

P.S. I can’t bring you back tequila or sombreros, Tits McGee. We’re not Mexican.

P.S.S. You're not getting a Boca jersey, GoPats. Wear your River Plate one with pride.

P.S.S.S. El Guapo, I know you’re jealous. We can't all be Argentineans.
