Week 5 – Part 2
Once we actually made it out of the cruise terminal we were on to our next adventure. Taxi to Casa Lucy was quick and our host, Enid, was waiting patiently. Casa Lucy is located on a tree-lined street in the Palermo Soho district of Buenos Aires and convenient to the Subte. Our plan was to spend two weeks in BA and then take off and see some more sights in South America.
It became our home for the next three weeks. We fell in love almost immediately!
I highly recommend the Big Yellow Bus Tour. Now we were just about ready for anything…language barrier aside. On Sunday, we wandered around Palermo and met Enid and her husband John for lunch at a typical Argentinian parrilla called La Cabrera. When we initially booked the apartment with AirBNB we were a little concerned about renting directly from an owner and the language barrier upon arrival. Turns out Enid and John are from Vail, Colorado, their daughter Piper lives here in BA and they visit often. At this time, Piper is traveling around southeast Asia and they are down here dog sitting. Small world..and no language barrier here!
La Cabrera was delicious. We just need to figure out what cut of beef we want to order.
Can’t believe we have been away from home 5 weeks now. Time is flying.
Time away from home… 5 weeks.
Distance traveled – 13,694 miles

We were able to hop on a few blocks from Casa Lucy and 4 hours later we had completed the Grand Tour. This city has an abbondanza of trees and that doesn’t always mix with open air double-decker buses! Watch out, Watch out, Watch out!!!Bedroom at Casa Lucy
After we had settled in and found the ATMs, grocery stores, wine stores, etc. we thought it was time to get out and figure out this city of 13 million people. Best way to get your bearings is a Big Yellow Hop on- Hop off Bus tour! So that was our outing on Saturday.
