Together at Last!



It is the truth, Lara and I have reuntied in the city of Tango, Buenos Aires!!!! After I spent a wonderful week in Bariloche with Scott´s family, I have met up with Lara and Adam and one of their friend´s from Honduras, Sabrina here in Buenos Aires. Scott´s parents and youngest brother have returned to the states, and unfortunately on their last hours here got robbed...sound familiar mom and dad....crazy how they get you right when you are leaving. Scott has now moved on with his brother Brad, his uncle, and grandparents to Northern Argentina and will be arriving back here the 16th.

Lara and Adam look great and it feels wonderful to be reunited with them. I arrived to the hostel and they were out looking for an apartment and so I decided to wonder around the city. Luckily I saw them walking across a busy street, and Lara dodged traffic and ran across to see me, and from that moment on, as one can guess, it feels as though I´ve been here with her and Adam for a lifetime. We are having a great time, despite our crappy humid hostel of fleas. They have already found an apartment in their two days of looking.... and let me tell you, it is pretty cute and fancy all in one.

I still have not been able to get ahold of my cousin Adrian Callero. I call everyday but he is never home, or answering his cell phone. It seems like the Calleros here are a lot busier than the Calleros in the USA. Last night we ate an Italian dinner in the district called La Boca, where a vast majority of the immigrants from Genoa would immigrate and build their lives at the turn of the century. The houses were all so colorful and cute, just like Italy. I sat their and tried to imagine this little neighborhood 100 years ago wondering what it would have been like. It was even cooler than little Italy in New York and San Fransico. Today I was looking in the phone book, and not only did I find 6 Callero families, but one woman with the name Emilia Callero. I sorta want to stalk her down. Sorry mom, I looked for DeFuria, but their was none, it means that our southern roots are just a little more unique to the American continent. I will be keeping the family updated just in case I am ever able to get ahold of Adrian.

One last parting note....for all of those Super Trooper fans out there, I met the guy famous for the line .....Sorry we don´t have Literacola......at a bar watching the USC v Texas game the other night, it was great!

Oh how envious I am! I miss you guys so much. Please know how much I love you and how happy I am for you! Enjoy your great time in Buenos Aires and like I told Lara on her blog--buy me a one way ticket with all your extra funds! Don't come home anytime soon--it is nothing but rain.
