This past weekend I went to Tigre and Rosario. On Saturday, I went with Jim, Zeida, the girls and Elena to Tigre. I love the city. There are rivers flowing through it everywhere because it is on a delta. We took a boat ride to see some of the houses. Then, I shopped at all the shops there. The prices are pretty reasonable and there were a lot of things to look at! On Sunday, I went to Rosario with four other people. The drive is about three hours, but it took us about four. We had some car problems on the way back, which delayed our return, but everything turned out fine. Rosario is a beautiful city. There is a river that runs through it and the parks are wonderful. It was a quick trip and I was glad to get back.
Oh, I got a cell phone for this weekend. Zeida wanted me to have one while I was in Rosario, since it is pretty far away. One of the missionary families here just left, so I got to use one of theirs. It is fun having a cell phone for only a couple days...and a lot easier to contact people as well.
Now that the trip to Rosario is over, I have realized how close I am to going home. I have two more days left. The reality of that is hard to imagine. I hope I will be able to return someday, but right now I don't know if I will. Then, there is the fact that if I do indeed return one day not everyone will be here still. I have definitely enjoyed Argentina and the people, and if I get the chance to return one day, I will come willingly.

It went by so fast! I hope you do get to go back soon, you're so easy going and flexible, I think you'd be a great guest to have. Did you bring any brownie mix on your trip to make while you were down there? I always think of you when I make brownies and how that was your one request last summer when you stayed with us at GB.
You have been busy writing! I will be glad to see you even if it is only for 1 day. See you Friday.
YOu have had an amazing summer - I'm so proud of you for taking advantage of everything - I can't believe it's over already and you'll be heading back to school! Will we see you for a few minutes or not??
