Day Eighty Nine

     Erin Rea my sisters best friend arrived here today making our group five strong. Pretty cool that she was willing to come down straight from school in Vermont for Christmas break!  Pretty much as soon as she got here we went to the park because I wanted to go rollerblading before class. We all got there to learn that the 'street vendors' who rent the blades don't get to the park till 2pm. Today is day 89, I don't think I discovered the park until like day 30 but have wanted to rollerblade since then. This must be the 5th time a pair of blades has eluded me. However we did she some great dogs haha. Dog walkers are immensely popular here. In this picture the dog walker had tied them up to a fence while he sat on a nearby park bench and took a break:

     After class I had a two hour cultural excursion to Recoleta with my school. We spent most of it in the Recoleta Cemetery which I had no complaints with. I don't think I will ever get tired of going to that cemetery. I learned some amazing history and ghost stories too, including the true story about the 15 year old girl who was buried alive in one of the mausoleums.

     My mom made a nice dinner at the house and we played cards and took it easy the rest of the night.
