Day 2 & 3


We woke early and went off to a private, government funded all girls school for a brief concert...The girls thought the YGC were rock stars! It was a great morning!...After that we were off to La Plata for a tour, saw the famed La Plata Cathedral, the largest Catehdral in South America, went to rehearsal, and a concert...followed by an Asado dinner! Then we got back to the hotel at 2:00 AM! My Rotary brother Carlos was at the concert and my Rotary brother Cristian's son......What a great reunion! We got up this morning and were off the the country! We spent the day at a ranch! horeseback riding in the morning, followed by an asado and a tango/gaucho dance show! We came back to Buenos Aires and had a workshop and a rehearsal for tomorrow night's concert........What a full schedule! It has been great. Free day tomorrow for shopping and lunch with Carlos and then a concert tomorrow night!

DAY ONE!

Today we arrived early this morning to meet our tour guides, Hernan and Joaquin. We left the airport on a whirlwind tour of Buenos Aires, including a trip to The Metropolitan Cathedral on the Plaza de Mayo, where there was a prostest, the Boca section of the city and Recoleta Cemetary, the burial place of Eva Peron.
We then went and checked into the hotel where Jeff (the YGC director) and I were both given really nice suites!....Off to La Plata tomorrow for a workshop and a concert, and a visit to the concert by Carlos and either Cristian or his son...... Topo's sister Valeriamay also come to the concert!
Will try and post daily. So far things are great!






















































Well, we have arrived and it is amazing so far. Checked into the hotel and have about 3 hours until dinner.

Will post pics when the porter brings my luggage!
