Perfect!
I'm so glad you finally had a wonderful day on this trip. Also, that you're finally feeling relaxed. Three weeks sounds almost too long to me, so it's nice to hear that it is the perfect length for you. Street markets are always interesting. I'm glad you were able to find many things you wanted. Are they barterers?

Sounds like Paris is better
I have been reading and enjoying your blogs. I just don’t always have a comment. The potatoes look sinfully delicious. Perhaps you two have traveled enough if everything is starting to look the same*wink wink*

I have never seen crepes suzette made
It sounds like you found a nice restaurant and enjoyed a relaxing dinner. I always enjoy when they make a dish tableside, but have neither seen crepes suzette made nor tried it. The mousse looked wonderful.

WOW
The Andes are incredible, for sure. I’m glad you entered a more relaxed culture. What was in the ceviche (dish of the day)? It looked like shrimp.

Love the photos!
Love the pics of you two! Empanadas pic is my fav! So glad you got the class you were hoping for!

Art and Tango
This sounded like a wonderful day. I laughed at the accordion comment. I can't imagine an accordion being sexy - at all. Even if Tango is very sexy. That is about the moves of the dancers, not the music. I can totally picture Jeff being unexcited by Tango lessons. I'm not much of a dancer either, but I always want to TRY it.

What a day
Your blog would be very helpful for first time visitors to Buenos Aries. This was a day filled with stumbling blocks for you, the experience is great informationfor new visitors or travelers. I love the little extras your hotel is doing for you! You made me chuckle with your comment to Shari, but I knew exactly what you meant!

Galicia, a place to repeat!
Your blog is a true gem for travel enthusiasts. Inspired by your recommendations, I decided to venture with my family to explore the Rías Baixas, visiting charming places like Vigo and Ourense. We stayed for a week in a cozy, typical Galician house, Casa Rural Camu, which turned out to be the perfect place for our family of six. (www.casaruralcamu.com) The experience was so wonderful that we are already planning to return to Galicia next year. There are still many corners to discover in this magical region. Thanks to the advice from your blog, I have been able to trace a detailed itinerary for our next trip. A thousand thanks for sharing your knowledge and helping us create unforgettable memories!

Ah Paris!
First, I cracked up over lawyer voice. Pretty sure it is mother and teacher voice combined raised to the fifth power. Ha! Second, I want to visit Paris with you because I think someone who LOVES a place gives the best tours. Sorry you had to have a work issue. Glad you were able to regain your Paris state of mind rather quickly.

Interesting
Thanks for the heads up that this isn’t an art museum for me. Although Matter of Time looked quite interesting. It might be worth the visit just to experience that. Oh, one. Warhol. That’s the only artist name I recognized. But I am really NOT current on art. That is a LOT of beef. Is there any significance to calling it ox? Is that really different than beef we know in Montana? So sad that your trip is winding down. I will miss these blogs.

Thanks for the smiles
I thought the cathedral looked very interesting on the exterior. The architecture was unique (because three different styles are used?) to my untrained eyes. I like seeing pictures of you and Jerry, but I realize your blog is more about the places you’re visiting. Travel blog, right? I laughed when you said you sounded like your grandmother. I think all of us might be destined to have a few inherited sayings or worldviews. I just mentioned to Jeff that I was “all stove up” after sitting in the car. Who does THAT sound like? I’m glad you’re having a great time.
