On a recent trip to Colonia I was told that US$1,000.00 is the maximum amount that one can withdraw per day, per bank card. This can done in 4 installments. If you have US$10,000.00 in your U.S. bank account, you will only be able to withdraw a total of US$1,000.00 per day, even if you go to 8...

Heck ! I thought it was a job opportunity.

Today, I went to the Auto Classica show at the San Isidro Hipodromo. There was an amazing number of cars, trucks, motos and buses. Sunday is the last day. The Hipodromo is a short walk from the San Isidro (Tigre Line) station. $80.00 10:00-18:30

I went to Colonia, a few weeks ago. I bought my ticket from Seacat online. I sailed both ways on a Buquebus vesselThis was my second time there in 11 years of living in BA. Don't plan to stay there too long, as the town is B-O-R-I-N-G ! You can withdraw up to US$1000.00 per day from bank ATMs...

There are no direct flights from Liberia to the U.S., nor do any U.S. airlines fly to Liberia. I could think of some people in D.C. who I'd like to get the ebola virus or be beheaded or both.

I can't wait to join you, tomorrow ! I surely hope that that delightful British gentleman, who was at yesterday's Coffee Chat attends. He was the life of the party !

Since you said "we plan to be.......", This means that at least 1 other person is accompanying you. Why not have everyone take US$9,800? I don't know, but I would doubt that only Argentines in BA are hungry for U.S. dollars.

I was told that the Coffee Chat on 24 Septembre would be in Nunez. What can I do with my 1st class return ticket? It expires on Thursday, the 25th?

Sounds like a foolish idea."Citygirl"; right on. The list of "what ifs" could be endless. There are storage lockers at the M.T.L. bus terminal, near the Retiro Station. I thought that some hostels stored baggage???

I lived in Barcelona for 5 years, at the turn of the century. I had at least 4 bicycles stolen. One night, while I was at an English dinner at a hotel, near Sants Station, my bike was stolen. After the dinner I went to get my bike that was locked to a pole with a moto lock. The bike was gone and...

It (almost) never pays to be the good guy

Can't you send them to the U.K. Embassy in Buenos Aires? Don't yell at me for not knowing the rules; I'm not British.

I think that what I'm thinking (does that make any sense? is fewer Americans are coming to BA for business and or pleasure. There's a travel blog where in the past, about a dozen people a day would post advise questions. Now, the average is 1-2 a day. The visa, call it as you wish, for a family...

I was just thumbing through an old N.Y. Magazine; 16 April 2012. The full page United Airlines ad on page 5 says "Sweet Dreams, New York.Good Morning, Buenos Aires. Introducing new Daily nonstop service to Buenos Aires, Argentina." I didn't think that United still flies non stop from the N.Y.C...

From which country was this person's passport issued?

Something that even I never thought about. A little while ago, i walked past a women's shoe shoe on Libertad, near Arenales. What attracted my attention was the shiny, bright gold color of these shoes, then the price ! $2,500.00 ! I don't care what color money senora is using to buy these Zaps...

Since when do credit card companies give "interest-free credit payable in 12 monthly installments?" I checked that article, again. Here's the catch. Everything must be domestically produced. Everything domestically produced will break and or fall apart, well before the 12 month period. Then, the...

I heard that he's working at a Star-ucks in Liniers. Yes, I know about Red and Star-bucks.
