They raved about a beach town 5 hours south of B.A. called Villa Gesell (pronounced Bee-ja He-cell). So, the Aussies I have been traveling with and I  threw [...]

Posted by Dave Ford

OK! I am here. Buenos Aires. It feels like it is 95 degrees–but everything down here is in Celsius so who knows. The humidity is severe. Regardless, I am having a blast so far except for my throbbing hangover induced headache.
I am keeping a written journal. Here are some of the [...]
