In Salta
What a great place! Think of Italy with a touch of Mexico and a flavor of France at 1/3 the price. On everything! So far we´ve seen the beautiful city, had fun at the ATM (1 hour to success), had great food, many conversations, some in Spanglish, eaten incredible beef, and sampled the special wine of the region - Torrentes. CT is particularly smitten by the curley dark haired long lean young men, and we havn´t even been dancing yet. Off to the mountains tomorrow.

YEAHH!!! I knew you would like the nicknames. Oh please do give more reports on the long lean men. And about the dancing.
We had beef skirt steak last night. So there. Just kidding. I'm insanely jealous.
Also, when you are in B.A. again can you please take a picture for me of Avenida 9 Julio. I learned in class yesterday that at 430 feet across it is the largest boulevard in the world (champs elysees is only 238 or something, maybe 280). Anyway, be careful if you cross it. Most pedestrians get stuck on the 6foot wide median in the middle of what looks like 10 lanes of traffic whizzing by on either side. I wouldn't recommend it. But if you do get to the median, take a pic there too for me!!!
