    Sad News for The Ex Pat Community

    I ran into her at La Biela last year, I was having my lunch and invited her to have a beer next me. She appeared to be in great spirit and looked very healthy. I can not believe this. Life is so fragile and short. May she rest in peace and heaven!

    Good Chinese Restaurants

    I am sorry, the Garden at Riobamba and Santa Fe is not good. My Chinese friends say the owner is not Chinese, they are from South East Asia, anyway that is not the point. Their "Chinese" food is Argentine.

    Been to Iguazu recently? ... need some info

    I stayed Sheraton, not cheap, but worth the trouble. The city is quite boring, the fall is great. And probably not worth the trouble to go to the Brasil side either. I was stuck at the small airport for 6 hours because of the strike.

    Elliptical Trainer

    There are no good elliptical trainers in Argentina at average gyms, like PRECORE, it doesn't work if it's not good.
