A Mini Update

Hey everyone!

So now Shane and I are pretty much settled into our cozy little apartment!

We've had a lazy week... Its been very cold here in Buenos Aires. It's been hovering around 10 degrees... which is not warm enough for either of us! We're waiting for the sun to come out and warm us up! Hopefully this weekend we will have better weather!

So the most exciting thing Shane and I did this week was go to the Japanese Gardens. It was really nice and had an interesting structure. There were bridges throughout the park where you could cross and watch the giant fish in the pond.




We also saw some dead trees... which were suppose to be beautiful flowers. It's the winter so everything was dead. We're going to go back in the summer because the pictures of the trees in bloom were very nice.





I forced Shane to take pictures with me which he really didn't want to do! I had to beg him to let someone hold his beautiful camera while we did the poses of my choice. It was actually quite nice to see Shane break out of his serious shell for a little while. Haha :)



Then we went to the sushi house, sat down, and tried to read the Spanish menu. After about 15 minutes we discovered that it was just a drinks menu... we missed lunch. We were so excited to try some sushi... next time!







It was a pretty short day. We were freezing after a couple of hours so we quickly went home after the gardens and snuggled in for a movie night.

Tonight, I went and watched Shane train for the first time since we got here. It was so nice to watch him again. The people were so nice at the gym. Argentina is such a friendly place. I haven't been kissed so many times in one as I did tonight! I love how much everyone loves each other. From the time I told you all about how I kissed the Master... well I've learned how to do it properly now. Hopefully I won't embarrass Shane as much as I begin to learn about the ways of the culture.

On Friday, we start our Spanish lessons. I'm very excited because it makes me sad when I can't have a conversation with someone. Tonight I had to sit in that gym full of people and not talk because nobody understood me. Not for long though. Soon I will be talking up a storm to all these people who think I don't know how to speak!

Until next time!

Much Love,
Ash
