My trip to Buenos Aires


The entire trip to Argentina for me was 26 hours!  We left our house in New Jersey at 3 pm, and arrived at 6.  Usually the trip to the city only takes 1 hour but because there was so much traffic it took 3 hours.  Then, I went through security and baggage check, and finally waited for the flight which left JFK at 10:45.  Next, we flew to Lima, Peru, where we made a stop for about an hour.  We could see that the neighborhood surrounding the airport was very poor.  We flew more again and then made a stop in Santiago, Chile for about an hour and half.  Santiago was very expensive and this is where I first found out that how they make coffee is very different.  I only asked for café con leche, and they gave me something with foam and I had no idea what it was.  After waiting in Santiago for an hour and a half, we boarded the flight for Buenos Aires.  We arrived around 4:30 and THEN we took a bus into the city which took about 30 min, and we finally arrived at around 5:00.  This was the LONGEST trip I have ever taken and I was extremely exhausted, but as soon as I arrived I was extremely excited to start my adventure in Buenos Aires!
