At church this morning a few of our guy friends were chilling around this huge book...we're not really sure what it's about, but it looks pretty massive and significant.

Tonight we enjoyed a relaxing night in. At the beginning it was just girls; Joy and I shared our Chilean wine with Heather and she shared her US chocolates with us. When our guy friends arrived we finished the night with one of our favorite movies, Disney's "Enchanted", which the boys agreed was a great movie to see....one time.

Today Sarah had to head back to the States after an awesome week of having here in Argentina. Before she left we got a pictures of the ladies of the house (minus Eva, plus Sarah), and then Sarah and I said goodbye at the airport....thankfully, it's "see you soon!", at some point this summer!

Today was our big day out of (and in) the city with Sarah...we went with a group of friends back to Playa de los Hippies, where we had been in mid-December, and loved. We enjoyed a peaceful afternoon swimming, eating, lying out, and had a pretty intense game of ultimate frisbee, boys vs. girls (of course).

Later that night we dined at "Un Lugar", a restaurant our friend Javier took us too...it has a crazy but cool atmosphere, lots of candlelight, and you're allowed/encouraged to write or carve on the tables!

Today Sarah and Steph did some more sight-seeing around Córdoba. At the Manzana Jesuítica we ran into a whole little ditch full of Sun Cats!

After a Luz Urbana meeting at night we went out to get Sarah some legit Argentinian meat at Betos, a parilla close to Luz Urbana, while Joy and Steph and the boys had the best lomitos in Córdoba. Sarah also interviewed Pablo as part of her project on Argentina...one of the most entertaining parts of the whole week :)

Today we kicked off English Talk, 2011! And then afterwards Sarah and Steph went to a typical Argentinian restaurant, Alfonsina, to hear folklore music and give Sarah a better look at the Argentinian dining culture. Here is part of the 2nd set of empanadas for the day, and Gancia with Sprite :)

Steph's sister-in-law Sarah arrived to Argentina today for a 4-day visit during her Spring Break! After a brief rain shower we headed down to the center to catch the lights and water show at Buen Pastor, and then to el Parque Sarmiento to eat choripan at the Dante, followed by a brief walking tour around Nueva Córdoba! Sarah, despite her lack of sleep, still had energy by the time the rest of us were ready to call it a night :)
