Hi there folks,
We're having an absolute blast here in Buenos Aires. This is a gorgeous city. It feels like Paris in many ways, but it is definately distinctive. It's also gigantic. Cabs and the metro line are easy to use and very cheap. We've visited an antique row much like London's Portabello Road - full of merchants and street performers. We've walked around some of the city's most famous monuments, we've been to the Japanese gardens, and also done some shopping. We've also been eating a considerable amount of meat and consuming lots and lots of red wine. This morning we went to the gym and then lounged by the pool. That's the nice thing about taking this much time here - we don't feel rushed.

Hi there,
How does it feel to be a member of the mature demographic? I couldn't let the day go by without acknowledging that memory of "It's a boy!!" I can't say that the last 30 years have flown by: too many distinctive life scenes come to mind. They include your begging me not to let the doctors cut off your leg (ER at the ski resort)--that still makes me cry; teaching you to ride a bike at the Murray Ave. playground; dancing in our living room to Sam Cooke; "At what time exactly will you be home, Mom?"; seeing you debate at a MHS Junior State event; hearing your stories of part-time jobs (Money Paper, Corner store, country club); dropping you off at AU; our move into 51st St.; and seeing you make your way from job to job, to what will be a break-through opportunity for you at NREL. I have great confidence in your ability to navigate through the bad times and relish the good times. I'm proud of all (ok, maybe not everything)that you've done in 30 years, and proud of being your mom. Love and Kisses, Ma (glad you're having fun.)
