Where Are We?

We flew all day and all night and landed in a place we recognize but can't quite put our finger on.
Look at that architecture, we must be in Paris.


No wait, listen to all the “ciaos” and see the crazy arm gestures, I think we're in Rome.
Hold on - there's the Washington monument, maybe we landed in DC.
 
NYC is more like it – there are so many taxis and buses and people and grit.
Even the designs of Gaudi are apparent so we've got to be in Barcelona.
Alas, it's Buenos Aires. It's the first time either of us have been in the southern hemisphere and what a fabulous place to start our adventure. It feels similar because we've been to western Europe many times but it's different in so many ways. To land here and get to know a new culture, perspective, history, people is a wonderful beginning for us. Hola Buenos Aires!
