quick update from mardel

we are in mar del plata right now which is nice, though not quite as sunny as we had hoped. the first place we stayed had a curfew of 11 p.m which as you know is usually when we are just heading out to start our evening, so we quickly moved to the hotel po which has, in contrast to the other place, a 24 hour open door poilcy and toilet paper in the room, with a spare roll! we are thrilled with our new accomodations, though we haven't tried the shower yet, which is one of those shower head in the middle of the wall deals. i guess you can sit on the toilet and shower at the same time? i will take a picture to show you what i mean, but you literally have to take the tp out of the room as everything gets completely soaked. tonight we are going to have dinner with friends who are here, and then tomorrow we head back on the train. the trip down on the train pretty much sucked, as first class must only mean that we have seats, or something, because it was crowded and dirty and the lights were somehow hooked up to the wheels so every time the train stopped the entire train went pitch black. very strange. so i hope you are having a nice holiday, i am sad i can't be there with you but i am sure it will be great, hi to everyone from me and i will update again soon!!!
