Last Day in Paradise.

After Iguazu, we went into fast mode. Couple days left to do some important things and then pack and leave. Here is a brief rundown of our last full day in Buenos Aires:

- 45 mins @ post office waiting (it would have been longer but the man next to us took 2 numbers by accident and gave one to us - thank goodness because Abby was miserable, convinced we were wasting our time, and driving me nuts!). We finally get up there and pay but he sends us on our way before he actually puts the stamps on. We write off the postcards on the spot, assuming they will never see the shores of the USA. (Shockingly enough, at least most of them arrived at their destination within ONE week!)

- Returned to Comme il Faut to try to get a bigger size in the shoes I bought (and was absolutely in love with), but they said "Oh, we don't have these in your size" -without even looking! Anyone sense a lie here?- so I had to find another pair, and I didn't fall in love with any. I exchanged them for a beautiful black and pink set, but was really sad to see the originals go. (More on why I couldn't check the racks for myself will probably surface at a later date.)

- Spent about an hour and 1/2 at our Spanish school, trying to get our "Certificate of Completion" printed. We had been calling them and calling them, and they kept blowing us off. We finally got them to commit, because we were leaving the next day, but when we got there they were not done. We waited and waited, and finally, they printed them for us (basic printer job). Our names are backwards and the printer definitely needed a new cartridge but we cut our losses and went on our way.

- Then we headed home to pack, pack, pack!!

- After a couple hours we started to get cranky, a sure sign it is getting near dinner time (dinner time is 10 PM-ish, remember) changed up and headed out to Juana M, a super nice spot Jackie turned us onto in December. It is the one spot in the city we actually got a nice salad bar with a good selection! I had salad, lomo (sirloin) and chorizo sausage. One of the pieces of sirloin seemed to have been cut poorly but the other piece completely made up for it. We were stuffed!

- Headed home to put the final touches on our packing, and then cried ourselves to sleep.
