First Day in Buenos Aires.

After passing out on the floor of Ariels apartment we woke up refreshed and yet again excited to check out a new city. It was out of the ordinary to wake up in a nice apartment and make coffee and while brittni knitted like she often does in the morning I got to play the new medal of honor video game for xbox... weird... i just wasnt expecting that. But i cant play video games all day so we packed up some sandwiches and headed down to the center of town to meet Ariel. Suprisingly no problems with the bus, we got there and found him with eeaase. We started following Ariel down cobble stone streets and alley ways that looked like to me what paris probably looks like ( but i dont know ive never been to or seen pictures of paris other then the eiffel tower). after walking around wide eyed for a little while we stumbled into a crazy church but brittni insisted that it was a catholic cathedral... what ev, it was crazy. the architecture was elaborate as ive ever seen and the statues of Jesus were powerfull enough to bring old men to their knees... seriously in pues... after such an experience we seriously needed some pizza. so we walked from the presidents house to a neighborhood called la boca a cool and older part of town that was supposed to have bomb pizza, and it lived up to its reputation run down and killer pie. after about 20 blocks on foot i got to enjoy a cold pepsi and the best anchovy pizza Ive ever had. so brittni was reading about a cool part of town where all the buildings are painted differant colors and we could not miss out on seeing it. so we started walking towards the technicolor buildings and while i took a drag from my cigarette i noticed a police car with a crack head in hand cuffs in the back seat which was not too strange i suppose, but what was strange was the way the officer was looking at me. i thought he had a problem or something so i puffed my square raised an eyebrow and kept walking. shortly after our first encounter i heard a voice say "Chicos!!". I turn around and its that chubby cop that was looking at me funny from his squad car. Thank god Ariel was with us and could talk to the cop because he was trying to tell us that one block in any direction from where we were could be the last one block we walk he told Ariel to take off his watch and get in the next cab to anywhere but where we were standing. so we did and actually ended up in a really beautiful part of town where brittni got to tango onstage with a brown skinned argentinian man and we made it back to the apartment safe and sound...
