A Very Extended Week and a Half

We have officially finished our week and a half in Argentina and have loved it, so we have decided to stay here in Argentina for the rest of our trip instead of going back to Uruguay. We have been very impressed with Argentina for many reasons.

1. They have such a wonderful culture and people are proud of that, and wholeheartedly enjoy it.

2. The people are very energetic and taking as much as they can out of life, and striving for the best. But at the same time, being content with simplicity.

3. Catholicism instead of secularism is the Country´s religion, so people here are much more dedicated to God and what they believe in.

4. And last it is so beautiful, from rolling grass farmland to rugged, snow-peaked mountains. The moment we saw those mountains we knew our hearts would stay.

It is not a perfect country but it is still really amazing, and we all love it. Every day holds another adventure and we offer them all up to God in his perfect will for our trip. Until later then,
Julia

Might I suggest that everyone break out into song! Perhaps in honor of the extremely beautiful and revered Eva Perone. Don't cry for me Argentina. I think it would go over quite well on long crowded bus trips. But hey.....don't tell your mom I told you to do that! My love to all of you as I think of you often! Xoxoxo....melissa.....you know.....the hairstylist that smuggled cuban cigars into Argentina so long ago!.....just kidding!
