If You Could See What I See

I promised you pictures of my apartment. But, since these pictures are more impressive, I'll post them first and save the apartment pics for another day. This is my view. The photo above is the view from my bedroom. Lots of houses, but no tall buildings nearby which gives me a nice wide-open-spaces feel.
This is the view from the balcony in my living room. See that building on the right? It is directly outside my window. SO, if you're in the bedroom (at the back of the apartment) it fills the entire view. Boo hoo! But if you step onto the balcony, you see much more of the Rio de la Plata. Like this.... Oh and way far away off in the distance is Buenos Aires downtown. I'm about 6 miles north of the Capital Federal (official downtown area) but it's a cinch to get there by train and takes 20-30 minutes. I'll be going downtown tomorrow to walk around and explore. Updates about that later!
