Hola. It's good to know someone is waiting for you when you arrived at strange place for the first time; in this case Buenos Aires. So my tour agent rep, Venesa (takde Hudson der) dah tunggu lepas claim baggage.
Terus straight ke hotel, it was almost 8pm at that time. During the drive dia explain bit about the whole program (driver orang lain la). Side stories sikit like they just finished election to select candidate untuk new President, come October. How important USD to them that only recently they are allowed by government to change peso for USD, max 300 peso like that. Buying house is preferred in USD mainly due to inflation. Dia advise jangan show off iPhone (mine 4S) sebab BA tak jual/ mahal gila; bila dia bawa keluar phone dia, sekali iPhone 6 kau! Menarik la and it ease my nervousness a bit. By the time sampai hotel, lega and excited to begin my adventure. In the room, take pictures and update loved ones back at home. Thanks to the superb Internet connection; TM/ maxis take note.
Because Obama is so mainstream
Day 2
Alhamdulillah my sleep was ok for the first night in BA, not on the next two consecutives day tho (maybe more about this later). Bangun and breakfast, tips- kalau nak pergi jauh dalam travel ni (fuh ayat..), biasakan makan cereal, InsyaAllah you will survive. About 8am, city tour begins (shared services). Just enjoy the pictures ya, basically we covered San Telmo, Boca, Recoleta and Palermo (where my hotel is located).
Bunga kebangsaan Argentina (kot). Jadi symbol kat park, it will blossom during the day and kuncup during the night BUT because it was broken it remains like that all the time <jokes tour guide>
Ada 2 version pasal warna bangunan ni but I like where it was colored by mixture of lime and cow blood. Satu lagi, president at that time minat putih and merah, hence jadi pink #boooring
St Martin dengan perjuangan keamanannya symbolized by the fire/ flare. Kalau padam maknanya ada huru-hara ataupun ada staff yang nak hilang kerja la tu
This is just a telco shop but nice kan
Tun M mortalized. No wonder he likes Argentina a lot
Just to let you know, Marijuana is legal here. That noon diorang berkumpul reramai kat main plaza ni and get stoned! Tak tahu la celebrate special day ke protest on something. I was like whaaaat
Main entrance to La Bombonera. I wrote about the team on my FB page so gonna skip this
Even before I came here dah search about halal steak and finally found one! So boleh claim la makan daging Argentina yo. Nama Kedai ni dah tukar few times for the last 3-4 years I think, formerly known as Baraka.
