On Reflection.

19th. November
Now that our trip to New York is over and the dust settled a little; our trip to BA can, perhaps, be better reflected upon against that backdrop of another new big city visited albeit briefly.
Our fondness for the city of Buenos Aires and the Portenos is undeminished; perhaps it is the economic difficulties that effected the Argentinian people over recent times, I'm not sure why but feelings of the warmth, stoicism, humour and generocity of spirit experienced abides so strongly.
With the world wide economic travails being seen here and the politicians in public denial we are even more in tune with our friends there. In sport I read and understand the travails of Maradona as the football coach with a difference, of Carlos Tevez's yearnings for family back home in spite of the golden attractions of the Premiership. There is a strange home sickness to, somehow, get back.
