Argentina - Part I

This past week we went to Argentina for a vacation. I was very nervous about Maggie's 1st plane ride. It is a 9 1/2 hour flight and then another 1 1/2 hour flight. She did better than I could have ever expected or asked for. She slept the entire time. From the time we took off in Dallas until we landed in Buenos Aires. Lucky us we had an extra seat beside us. She could lay down sleep. We went for Marcelo's sister's wedding. Well we got all the way to Argentina with NO luggage. NONE, ZIPPO, NADDA. We had the clothes on our back and that was it. It is winter down there and we didn't have our coats. We arrived on Thursday and the wedding was Friday night. Well too bad we didn't get our luggage until Saturday night and it was wet and mildewed!!! Maggie and I decided to stay at his brothers house and not go to the wedding. We would have had to buy everything new. Marcelo borrowed some clothes from his brother and they went and had a great time. He took pictures for me so that I could at least see her since she was wearing my wedding dress. She was sooooo pretty. Her reception was in the celler at a winery since Mendoza is the wine capital of Argentina. Maggie loved playing on the escalator.
