Arrived in Buenos Aires


This is Victoria and me on the roof of her appartment block in BsAs Palermo Hollywood.


After about 20 hours traveling I arrived at Vicotria´s place. The flight was ok, I could even catch some hours of sleep. The cash machine would not like to give me any money at the airport, but that might be realted to the fact that some money machines are restricted. That come from the Argentiean crisis some years ago, when everybody took out all there cash and the bank system collapsed.

Well, I changed my Euro I had with me and therefore I fell into the very first tourist trap only half: My taxi driver tried to charged my 6 times the actual price and luckly I only had 3 times the cash with me, so he was "generous" enough to let me go.

Well, we cooked already and I had my first try of Argentinian Steak, which was really nice.

It´s about 35C here, but the appartment is really nice with aome wind going through. It was hotter last week and when it cools down later the day, I try a second time to get cash. And my German SIM Card is not working, I will get one as well.
