This day we investigated the center of city, saw the monument, the widest street in the world, Ricoletto church and other well-known sights of Buenos Aires. After that we decided to return to the hotel on foot. According my gps navigator we were about three kilometers from it. On the way we had seen a small cozy restaurant and realized we are hungry. We came in and sat down. The waiter gave us a menu, but it was in Spanish. She also didn't speak English, and our Spanish was restricted by a few words. This situation reminded me of an old joke about foreigners in a Spanish restaurant. They wanted to get some milk, but couldn't explain it. At last one of them drew a cow. The waiter understood and he brought them tickets to a bullfight.
We were more happy, because we found a picture of salad on the menu. I also remembered the word ''pescado'', and my wife said something, which was close enough to ''bread'' in Spanish. As a result we got a lot of bread and two big and tasty salads from fresh vegetables with a good fish.
I need to say here a few words about the sky. It had a special color, not the same as in Europe, and the clouds were very interesting. We watched those two days, and they showed us many different pictures. At last they create an arrow, directed to the south. It was a sign for us to move there.
Adventure Life has been an extraordinary travel resource for us over the years and today was no exception. Our River Cruise booking was handled by Jess (who has been our personal trip planner for several years) the same day as our inquiry. Suggestions were given for cabin choice and pre-trip options (that were not shown on the cruise line's website) like airport transfers and prepaid gratuities. Trip insurance recommendations followed and we were assigned a travel co-ordinator till the end of the tour. All we have to do is show up! Great service from friendly folks.

Our travel was flawless! The rider pickup (airport, hotel, ship) was seamless. Jane's recommendation for Emerald Cruise Sakara was everything I wanted but the experience was soooo much more. Adventure Life took care of each and every detail and this was the easiest of all my travels.
