Gibraltar is at Peru 895, near Estados Unidos

It looks like we're meeting tonight at Bar Gibraltar in San Telmo, check out the "New to BA" thread. Hope to see you!

Gibraltar bar sounds good, especially since they may have IPA! I'll get there around 9, hopefully it won't be too busy then and we can find each other. I will also email those who have left their addresses a little later on...

Looks like so far, myself and celisew are down for grabbing a beer (or two) in San Telmo on Friday? Hopefully more can come as well!

I'm proposing to try and meet next Friday the 23rd, so you're not too late...

Seems like we've got a good group that is interested. I have never gone about trying to arrange something like this, but we'd better go ahead and throw something on the table and see if it works! So, how about next Friday at Bar Seddon in San Telmo, say around 9pm? I'm not sure if they accept...

I have heard of some scams, such as people reserving through an agency, only to find that the apartments didn't even exist once arriving! That said, I recently moved here from abroad and did what you are considering with no complications. I was required to pay $370 or so up front via paypal...

I plan on coming as well, and thank you for putting it together.

I'd love to come to the game(s), please add me to the list - go (at) looklisten dot net

So, I've read here and there that BA is one of the few places that still has restaurants that serve water with a siphon spout--which makes "agua con gas" as it is poured--and that it is quite good and worth seeking out. Can anyone recommend some places that serve water this way? If you were to...

The Lonely Planet BA City Guide I have says it will be on January 26th this year(and Feb. 14 in '10, Feb. 3 in '11).

It seems like we have enough interested people to try and arrange something, would anybody want to meet Thursday or Friday evening? If not, maybe next weekwill work.

Buenvenidos Marie! I just arrived too and would love to meet up for coffee, a drink, whatever! I am in Retiro, at Santa Fe and Talcahuano. Sent me a PM if you'd like to get together and exchange stories sometime.

I am still seeking out some good resources for keeping tabs on what is going on around town, but I do know of these two sites which may help some for #3: http://whatsupbuenosaires.com (local stuff) http://www.ticketek.com.ar (larger scale events, including DJs)

I came in yesterday (Saturday) on a flight from NYC and there were no fees...

I will be arriving Saturday afternoon and would love to go and meet some folks...and as a pesce-tarian who eats more Asian than anything else, I can't wait to try the food here!

Thanks for informative input everyone. What about Mexico & Piedras? Is that San Telmo or Montserrat?

A quick rant, hopefully not too political :) People everywhere, but especially in the Western world, owe it to themselves to look past the campaign of misinformation and fear regarding "socialism". It is not a system that tries to make everyone the same or take away individuality, but simply to...

Thanks for the responses all. I was initially leaning towards that area because the apartments are very nice and modern and fit my two criteria (balcony and internet!). However, it seems like it isn't the safest neighborhood and will also be rather noisy due to proximity to Av. 9 de Julio. There...

This looks like it would work (I'm going to need to get one as well for my laptop and other stuff): http://www.swiss-travel-shop.com/product_info.php/cPath/21/products_id/106/page/1/language/en
