Thursday, March 12 – transit from Florianopolis to Buenos Aires
I’m lovin’ Uber in Florianopolis! Cost of the ride to the airport: $6. Less than half of what I paid for a taxi when I arrived.
In my last entry I mentioned that I was planning on posting a journal update today, but something made that difficult. Well…
The rest of my arrival in BA followed the same script as a couple weeks ago – bus to the city and then a shared minibus to the Art Suites hotel in the Recoleta neighborhood. By the time I got to the hotel I wasn’t in much of a mood to work on my journal!
Friday, March 13 – Buenos Aires
No big plans today. It’s a nice day though, so let’s see where my roaming leads!
Saturday, March 14 – Buenos Aires
It’s raining, so it seems like a perfect day to work on the journal, do some trip planning, and REST!
Sidenote: I did go out to grab some cash at the nearby ATM. I tried for 4,000 pesos this time, and…success! Whoo hoo! (also went on an empanada run!)

When were you planning on coming back to the US? Think your plans will change as things start moving to south america? Hope you are able to enjoy the rest!!
Interesting that they are checking body temperatures. I am sure you will find plenty to do but all of the closings are hampering so many trips. People here seem to be preparing to be locked in their houses for weeks. The grocery stores are packed and the shelves are empty. I love the picture of the dog walker!
Hi Kari! I just read the State Journal article about what’s going on at the local grocery stores. Pretty crazy! I also read about the MASSIVE immigration delays travelers are facing as they return to the U.S. from Europe. My measly two hour delay now seems trivial in comparison! Thanks for your note!

Hi Kait! Great questions! So good, in fact, that I’ve addressed them in my latest Journal Entry. Thanks for checking in!
Things are shutting down everywhere! I’m sure you will still find some fun things to do. Stay safe!
Thanks for your thoughts Holly!

Ann and John are quarantined for 2 weeks. Not fun.
