25th of July – Travel to Buenos Aires

Our day started early, we had to catch a bus to Argentina, and go from there to the airport. When we got to the airport our flight was apparently an hour earlier than expected, which meant less time waiting at the airport. At the gate we realised we were not the only ones who were told that the plane would leave earlier, since no one told the plane either. After a short while we landed in the beautiful Buenos Aires. After yet another bus, we arrived too early at the hotel to check in, so we had to kill some time. But the best part was that we found a whole Professor Ivo Filot waiting for us.

Quickly the group split into smaller groups. Casper, Jochem, Stijn, Marten and Robert went to a small bakery to have lunch. Here three of them decided to have a sandwich milanese, which contained lettuce, tomato and a snitzel the size of Robert.
After lunch the group went on a adventure through Buenos Aires to discover it a bit. We found an indoor mall/market and found there some restaurants and souvenir shops. Some shirts and magnets were bought.

After some time Casper, Tymen en Robert ended in a Argentinian raclette fusion restaurant, where the food was of high quality and delicious.

The day ended for some of us by being awoken around 22:30 by he, who must not be named, entering the room and playing the music of a mariachi band.

While on the other hand, after dropping off our stuff at the hotel and waiting for the check in time. Some of us ( Anvitha, Patricija, Helia, Elin, Micha, Reneze, Sabine, Emma, Irmak, Winnie, Tessa) when to get some food and coffee. After that we walked around for a bit and stopped by some vintage stores and cute stores to buy stickers. then at the head back to the hotel to check into our rooms.

Later Helia, Patricija, and I (Anvitha) went to do our laundry, we met someone else who also needed to use the laundrette. One of the dryers had caught fire, and we could clearly see the damage, although it had already been covered up. Surprisingly, no one there seemed concerned about it, and everyone was quite relaxed.

While we were waiting, we walked around the nearby streets and visited a few bookstores. As Helia stayed behind to finish drying the clothes, Patricija and I went to a large indoor marketplace.

We spent some time exploring the market and looked at lots of souvenirs that we wanted to buy for our family and friends.

Later that evening, we met up with Helia again and had pizza at the market before heading back to the hotel to get some sleep.
