What a Trip!

Our first gap tour has ended, and without so much as a day to adapt to life without a shepherd, K and I flew off to Buenos Aires and had to fend for ourselves to find a place to stay, and transportation from the airport.

It was painfully obivous how rusty we had become, as I rushed into the airport shuttle without realising that a cab for two people would be only a dollar more, and would drop us off wherever we wanted rather than at the bus station.

For the last 24 days, we've had all of our toughest decisions made for us, all of our logistics, safety concerns, meals, and translation done for us.  Not only did we escape unscathed from the trip, but we made fast friends, learned a thing or two, and saw so much more that we ever could have on our own. 

We had a fantastic guide, who never let us down no matter how hung-over she was.  She managed to keep our diverse group together, made sure each and every one of us was included, and always made sure we knew what time the free hotel breakfast was being served.  Thanks, P!
