vecinaaaa!

We made it!  Every single standby flight we got on and arrived all in the same day.  Only one drawback our bags didn't booo!  The plane was overweight and since our bags were the last to arrive they didn't make the last flight from Panama City to Cordoba :p  The nice COPA airlines representative told us they would arrive on the next flight the following day and they would send the bags to where we are staying bright and early Saturday morning.  Well its noon on Saturday and we still don't have our bags :(  Our friend Lizzie is on the phone trying to figure out what's going on.  Other than not having any clothes our trip has been pleasant so far.  Yesterday we had breakfast with Lizzie's mom and then went to visit Mike's tia Rosa.  We stopped at the grocery store to buy a few american things like cereal :)  I need more than a cookie and a piece of bread in the morning.  Last night we went back to tia Rosa's house to see tio Lencho (not sure if I'm sp his name right).  Mike got his lomo sandwich.  What that is a heart attack on a sandwich.  Its meat, ham, egg, lettuce, tomato, cheese, mayo, mustard I think that's it.  Anyways so that's all for now.  We'll mainly be visiting family this week so there may not be any updates for a few days.  And in regards to the title, there is a commercial down here for a supermarket and at the top of the screen its says VECINAAA! Which cracks me up because I imagine them saying it like GIRLFRIEND! check out these deals, haha!

Hi guys, glad to know that you arrived safe and sound. How are the empanadas? Dan wants to know. Hey, it's saturday, Oct 29, and it's SNOWING!!!! in Pennsylvania and the entire northeast, our first noreaster, 33 degrees, feels like 28!!!!! We are expecting 4-8 inches of snow in the Lehigh Valley. Cool beans right?
Hope you have a good time in Argentina, visiting all the friends and family and getting to know the different areas of the country. And.... if you drink wine with all the lomitos you eat, you can't get a heart attack, right? I think that's how it works. Love you all, Analia

Quick update: Our luggage arrived this evening at 6:00, w00t! That's crazy its snowing in PA. Haven't had any empanadas yet, crazy right? I'm sure I'll make up for that in the next couple of weeks. Hmm didn't have wine with my lomito but did drink a Quilmes stout, it should work the same as the wine ;)
