We enjoyed one last view of the Falls from our room this morning before checking out. Actually, it was a view of a large cloud of mist and we realized how lucky we were that the the views during our stay were so clear.
We left the Sheraton about 8:15 a.m. and arrived at the Aeropuerto Puerto Iguazú (IGR) in plenty of time. Security was a breeze, and our one hour and forty minute flight to Buenos Aires on an AerolÃneas Argentinas 737 was pleasant.
We landed at a city airport, Jorge Newbery (AEP), rather than EZE, and a short cab ride later we were arriving at the Buenos Aires Hilton.
Our room wasn't ready and the front desk offered us a complimentary glass of wine at the lobby wine bar while we waited. Why not?
We're currently readying ourselves to board Insignia tomorrow afternoon. Kathy is ironing clothes and Brian is getting in touch with Alex, our wine merchant and fellow FlyerTalker.
Kathy's business is pressing, but Brian's business is too.
Kathy and Brian
Two retired educators alternating joyfully between seeing the world and enjoying our eight grandchildren (in order of birth), Jake, Avery, Taegan, Lily, Peyton, Riley, Blane, and Jace.
Kathy and Brian met in the clarinet section of the University of California (Santa Barbara) Symphony Orchestra several decades ago.
Brian's Western Canadian roots and Kathy's Colorado ties resulted in their making beautiful music together along with producing a cross-border crop of descendants.
Kathy spent a year studying in Vienna at the Institute for European Studies and the University of Vienna.
Brian started the school band program in Hope, British Columbia, and later became the high school's vice-principal for 6 years and subsequently principal for 15 years before retiring in 2001.
Kathy, in between raising our three children, taught kindergarten and first grade, middle school, and high school - mathematics, computer studies, ESL, and her first love, band, before retiring in 2001.
We enjoy sharing our travel experiences and providing the odd travel tip to friends, relatives, and visitors.
I'm impressed with both of you.
