Hola, Morocha! A Black Woman's Adventures In Buenos Aires by Jennifer Poe

Wandering thru 'Recoleta' (Subiaco equiv of BA) - stylish, lovely restaurants & cafes alfresco style making our 'Sunday Session' wonderful.Bless Dad, intervening shoo-in him away and saying 'he´s not good enough for Jen, she can do better'. Jen getting chatted up by a Scottish oil rig worker with his Scottish accent so thick, too hard to understand.Turns out the bus leaks and has been torential rain so we weren´t haulicinating thinking. Actually that wasn´t a highlight but so WEIRD. Having wet bums on the bus from Buenos Aires to Cordoba.A bloke from Wisconsin saying the highlight of his state includes 'topless bars' and Milwauakee is one of the best cities in the world?!?!?!?.Dad telling all the young girls calling him Dad 'I´m a married man with responsibillities'.(Um, Jen does not have an ear piercing - it´s a freckle) Cindy saying to Jen 'that is a dark nose piercing you have'.She was 24 saying 'oh man, I´m so jealous. Telling this sweet naive Canadian girl Cindy that we caught the subway.Clare trying to buy a bus ticket in French - un, deux, trois.Jen stacking it at the nightclub - massive bruise!.The quantity of food that ends up on Dad´s face without him realising each time he eats!.Clare at her first tango lesson involving 12 steps, muddling up which feet to use and kicking this poor lad in the shin!.Dad snoring and waking himself up regularly!.Jen absolutely cracking up and laughing out load at her own jokes.So far no boy is good enough and he has shoo-ed them all away! He looks after all the girls and make sure that the boys hitting on them are good enough. All the girls in the hostel are calling my dad 'Dad'. The travelers in the hostel have a new 'Dad', mine!.

Having a heart attack whilst driving in a taxi in Buenos Aires to the bus station when nearly hit a bus and we all screamed!.Dad walking off in the wrong direction at every corner!.Jen called the bank and realised it was the things she had bought.

Jen panicking about her bank statement of all these charges.

Jen drawing a cow that looked like a picture of the world.

Jen´s face whilst Clare and Dad ate intestines and balls.

What kind of trio are we! (Dad did get his bag in the end and Clare did find her glasses!) Dad almost left his whole bag on the bus. What a spectacular place Buenos Aires is - it has everything I imagined and more! One is captivated by the European architecture mostly like Paris, the immense size of the city, a sightseeing heaven and cultural diversity, frenzied with the wild nightlife any day of the week, the best steaks in the world, tango capital and come across some spectacular musicians!
