Kelly and I made our second museum trip yesterday to MALBA, a major collection of modern Latin American art... not exactly our cup of tea, but we convinced the guy at the desk to let us in for free despite our lack of identification so all was not for naught, and we happened to run into Emma who we met at the potluck the night before. Across the street was pretty much the largest Carrefour (supermarket) I'd ever seen, with an extensive home goods and electronics selection. They had a tray out with Jim Beam samples and some champagne for tasting. The meat section, per Argentine standards, was extensive and included some kind of packaged rat tail but surprisingly no pig heads. Pictures will be posted later today/tomorrow.
At night we decided to go to another CS event, this one was at a bar/club called Uniclub or something along those lines. We went to our friend David's apartment first, which we had never been to before and were pleased to discover that it involved a zebra skin rug (again, pictures to come). Then we met up with some more characters from around the world and headed to the party. Downstairs, I thought I recognized Yoshi, who is a chef from Israel who I met at the potluck. I approached him and said, "Hey! You cooked the fish last night right? It was delicious." This man was perplexed. Yoshi he was not.
The real Yoshi, and Aussie Zara and Bolivian Fatima were upstairs. We had a grand old time dancing to "Love Shack" and our current favorite "I Don't Feel Like Dancing." Our friend drove us home in the most ghetto, run-down bright yellow VW van I have ever seen. It belongs on this website: Suspicious Vans.
Come back for pics.
