Buenos Aries‏

I can´t believe almost half my trip is over, it will only be three months left on the 13th! I must say its been great so far.

Well since I last wrote I flew up to Buenos Aires, the Capital of Argentina. BA is fantastic, there is so much to see and do, I took a city tour and it was really good, went out to Boca (saw Boca Juniors ground, sadly there isn´t a match on for ages), the posh parts and the main City. I am going to have a tour around the Presidential Palace and Congress in a few days. The Palace is where Evita, and Madonna, sang.

So what else have I done in the last few days, well on Saturday I went on a demo against the War (in Iraq) organised by the Socialist Party of Argentina which was really good, got chatting to some of the members and they seemed quite interested in the work I do in the UK.

Yesterday I got the first boat to Montevideo in Uruguay (cost a fortune) spent the whole day there and night and came back this afternoon, its alright but a wee bit disappointing, very nice buildings but.
