Wow. Today has redefined what feeling loved is all about. From the minute I woke up I've been inundated with constant phone calls and email from people wishing me a great trip and asking how to keep in touch. I went into work today and was invited to drinks with a some coworkers only half an hour after returning from lunch with a few others. After work, I invited my entire contact list of New Yorkers to a random bar in a random part of town, and a whole bunch of you showed up. Thanks! and yay for last minute goodbyes!
The kicker, however, came when I got to the airport an hour ago, and was told I get to fly first class the entire way to Buenos Aires. Suddenly the 18-hour flight ahead of me isn't looking so bad. I get free alcohol, a nice pillow, a blanket... maybe I'll even get a foot massage or something. On top of that, I get to sit in the executive lounge until my flight starts boarding. There's fresh fruit and tea displayed gloriously on a table of "freebies". Talk about the grand treatment. This is how to travel!!

GOOD LUCK! We'll miss you!!!!
Ok, ive read your blog entries totally backwards (to explain why im commenting on them here). What a fantastic recount of these past three weeks...all of the tales seem so fresh in my memory. I am so sad to be leaving Buenos Aires/yall. I wish there were a way to freeze everything else and stay here forever. But no-go. So sad. OK, lets pick things up and say "CHAU"! ~Leslie P.
