Well, I am airport-bound in just 12 hours. Whoa. I can’t believe my childhood dream of going to stay in a foreign country is finally coming true. The reality sunk in a little more when I printed off the boarding passes. However, it still doesn’t seem real…maybe when I board the plane.
My first flight takes off at 5:05pm to Miami. Then I'll wander my way around the airport to find my next gate. The rumors say the Miami airport is huge and tends to confuse its wanderers. Just before Miami’s midnight, my Buenos Aires flight takes off. The flight takes almost nine hours. As long as I remain sane during the long trip, the hospitable and wonderful Tissoni family will greet me at the airport. They have two daughters - 16 and 13 years old. Hours after my arrival we will head to the beach in Mar del Plata. Apparently this is a location many Argentines love to visit. When I told some Argentine friends that I would sit in the warm breeze of Mar del Plata they looked jealous. That seems hopeful! (Note: It is taking a lot of will power to not go into a quick Spanish grammar lesson about the name of the beach. Your welcome to those of you who don’t have the same nerd-love that I do. Haha.)
Many other plans exist, but knowing how things rarely turn out how you expect, I will stick to the most current. Not spoilers here.
