When I got off the airplane this afternoon in Buenos Aires, I felt a certain degree of apprehension. I couldn´t tell you why, because I don´t quite understand it myself, but it was there. It is still lingering there, to some degree. Stacie and I have started that enevtable ¨last leg¨ to our trip. It is a time that I have been looking forwards to and dredding at the same time. Looking forward to the new cultures, differenes in language, foods, peoples and landscapes. Dreading the fact that it means that our trip is almost over. Even though we have two and a half more months, I feel like it is going to fly by and before I know it I will be taxing down the runway out of Quito headed back to the good ol´ EE. UU. (Estatos Unidos, United States). We have so many things planned for these next 2 months and I am so excited about what we are going to do.

A quick update, we are planning on spending the next two weeks or so traveling down south. Exploring the upper regions of patagonia and the lake country up in the Andes here in Argentina. Then we head over to Mendosa, the wine country, to work as WWOOFers for a few weeks at a buddest comune/monestary. So crazy. Then it is the 6 hour bus ride to Santiago where we are going to be working for one of my dad´s friends for a while with whatever they need help with. Then it is on the road again, up north and allllllll the way back to Quito to fly home. With, of course a quick stop in Lima to say goodbye to Joe and another stop in Mancora for a last relaxing time at the beach.

So, it is going to fly by!

I do want to share more stories, but there is a line up of people to use the free internet and the girl next to me has no intention of getting off, even though I´m pretty sure she has been on here for the last hour or so.... I´m always the good person. haha. But I will soon.
