His name was Nacho

We´re back! And oh so happy to be back. Man, we love this city. We got here around 6 last night and it was just perfect. IT was in the 70´s not a cloud in the sky and bright as could be outside. I don´t think it gets dark until around 10 or so. We checked back into our lovely Art Hotel, the same hotel we stayed at last year and LOVE! And we headed off to our favorite restaruant from last year in Palermo Viejo, Cluny. Which when you come to this city (not IF, but WHEN, bec. you can´t miss this city) you must must must eat here! we had the same thing as last year, the specialty, black ravioli with lamb. it´s oh so delicious and addictive. A great bottle of malbec and a fantastic desert of chocolate, bananas, rum and oranges. I twas paradise.
Determined not to be lame like last year and stay in we headed over to the Shamrock, a Irish bar of sorts that is pretty popular as an after work bar around here. Well it´s definitely popular bec. we didn´t leave until around 2. Again, we made some new friends. Unfortunately we can´t remember 2 of the guys names bec. the other one´s name was so, well, special. His name was, Nacho. Yes, his name was Nacho. I ask you, how are you supposed to remember anyone´s name after that? esp. when he follows up the introduction with: you know, like nacho cheese?? hahahaha Steph and I are still rolling. Anyways, the guys were great and we will most likely go to a club with them tonight that they recommended. Again, it´s more fun to go out with the locals and not feel like a tourist.
WE are so happy to be back in this city again. It´s such a wonderful place. The only sad thing is we don´t have our lovely tour guide here with us, Matias. Matias, I miss you! I know how much fun it would be to have you here. next time... :)
