Sept 13 continued:
I went to the wine and bodegas (not sure what this translates as) expo last night. It was about 10.00 and you got your own glass and went around tasting wine. I went with two girls I didn’t know very well from my program and got to know them well while chatting over our samples. I had two favorites. One was the dulce de leche stand (not wine) and the other was this orangeish looking wine that was very very sweet. I liked the white wines better, but maybe with food I would appreciate a more full bodied red malbach (sp). They are famous for their malbach (sp) here. I caught the last subway home and ate pizza with the host family before trying to get my life in order here. Between trying to do school, cooking classes (teach and take), tango lessons, be a tourist, and travel I am getting a little overwhelmed. So far my getting my plans down haven’t really helped. But here’s some new activities that I am going to look into or do. A modern argentine cooking class. Something with tango lessons haven’t decided whether I am going to spring for the private lessons or just go dancing a lot? I am also planning a trip to rosario this coming weekend to visit a friend from UO who is studying there. She took tango at UO with me so we should be able to use our skills if we can find a milonga there.
Ps. Another thing that I witnessed on Baliando por un sueno. The theme was disco and a couple painted themselves “black” for their performance. Politically correct? I think not.
