Still here! We didn't make the standby flight so we are still here. Maybe a New Year's in BA or hopefully in the air, on a flight. We shall see. We did top the late dinner last night at 2 pm. Amazing how restaurants are still serving that late. We passed by a club on the way home and it was hopping. And so was some other club music we got to here in the hotel room to try and sleep. Bus Tour Trying to keep our sweat down to a minimum, we decided to take a city bus tour. It was open air but today it did seem cooler than previously. i kept thinking "cool" thoughts anyways. We headed round the city with an audio guide that was off cue most of the time but ... read more

The Beef Coma After eating about 4 lbs of beef last night I think we were in a beef induced coma. Got a late start and just decided to wander around the city, do some shopping, and just take in the atmosphere. We headed back out to my favorite street, Florida, to get in some more shopping. The street is just lined with shops and people selling stuff on the street itself. We stopped in for some coffee at Havanna, a coffee shop that seems to be like our starbucks. A couple of starbucks were spotted but not many. Subway was also seen, and Burger King had the quadruple burger. The Protest We did see a protest from the hotel window, not sure what they were protesting but there sure were quite a few marchers. Yesterday ... read more

Moving on...hotels, that is We moved hotels this morning and are now at the NH Latino. After settling in we set out in search of the Puente de la Mujer. Which I swear was a pitstop on Amazing Race but I can find no record of it. Manda, did we see this before? Anyways, we managed to take the long route and the Mexican sweat set in in record time. yuck. Please note Missy that your Christmas gift did make it down south. The bridge actually seemed like nothing special, it kind of sits across the port. We tried to make it to the ocean view but it was took much and we just walked along the "boardwalk" that no long had any lagoon off to the side. The food smelled good but we opted to ... read more

Made it! Took a bus to the downtown bus station in hopes of getting a transfer to the hotel. Luckily there was one waiting and we didn´t have to attempt to hail a taxi. Guide books always seem to try and scare you with that. Of course the infamous Prague taxi incident has made me wary anyways. But all is well and we are awaiting a room. Hotel is nice and business center has free internet, I wish the wifi was free. And can I say it is quite warm and I am awaiting the sweat to start. Hope it´s not PR bad. Part Dos, Dia Uno Our room is nice. Had problems with the ATM, I hope I am not charged for the 3 times it told me it was giving me money. Walked down ... read more

The Waiting Game Why does everyone wait until the last minute to put themselves on standby? Flight to Buenos Aires is looking fuller. Guess it is now down to waiting to see if we get on or not. I hope we win this game.... read more
