Day Three was fantastic. It is also the 10th anniversary of when Rob and I met. Happy St. Patrick's Day.
Jen hired URC, Urban Running Club to lead her on a personalized 10k run through the city. Her guide listed the historical facts and points of interest in the city while she panted and sweat through the humidity. It was fantastic.
Family trip to the zoo: Much better than Recoleta cemetary for us. We should have known the children would be more interested in the live animals than dead people. However, note to self, one does not need to search the metropolis to find large zoo animals, as children were equally entertained by the flock of pigeons, ample capybaras (i.e. large Argentinian rat), ducks, mice, and stray cats that roam the zoo.
The zoo just celebrated it's 120th anniversary. We don't think they've updated the cages since then. You can feed the animals and get remarkably close to several. The liability in this country is a far cry from the US, but it made for a wonderfully intimate experience for us visiting. Not to mention, it was a relaxing atmosphere in the middle of a big, bustling city.
Lunch at Voulezvous. Excelente!
I'm LOVING your blog! Keep it coming... Jodie. ps. Jen is the only person i know that would pay some one to make her run a 10k.
