Day 10

Sabbath
We went to church-The End.
Just kidding I can´t make a post that short. We went to 2 churches this week instead of 3. Was much less hectic in that sense. We got a late start though and had to take a taxi to the first building instead of the train. Much more costly. The first ward we went to was Banfield 4. It was so cute, they were having their primary program. The kids were really cute and they sang the same songs as we did for our program, just in spanish. Next we went to the Pasco area. Scary neighborHOOD. Close to lots of ghetto areas. Of course super nice people. Our lunch plans we had made yesterday fell through so someone there ended up feeding us.
Next, we had a little bit of time before we were supposed to meet our next appointment so we went to San Telmo for their famous Ferria de Matadero. Much different than those we had already been to. It was in an area with lots of antique stores so you could go antiquing if you wanted. Then it was very tourist based and so very expensive (most Argentines prefer other ferrias). Then there were freaks galore. Lots of street preformers. It seemed at times some people were just doing anything they thought would be abnormal so the stupid Americans would laugh and give them a paso.

Okay more to come but soo sleepy. Plus I am way behind on pics. Not sure when I´ll get to catch up. Tomorrow is BUSY again

So are you home now? I'm so jealous of this trip . . . really, of any trip, even down the road a ways. I've got the travel bug bad now, thanks to you guys! It's time to go somewhere . . . good thing Disney is coming up soon.

Glad you guys have had such a good time, and thanks for sharing all of it with us. Travel safe!
