Last day in Argentina

Our last day here dawns clear and sunny, looks to be a humid day of about 78 F. We will be checking out of the apartment this morning, but we don't leave until late tonight. Last view from our balcony...





These items have been indispensible while we were here!! (Thank you, Travis)


See you all back home!!!

New Starbucks frappuccinos

We have found a few Starbucks here in Buenos Aires, not nearly enough to supply a city of 14 million!!! This little touch of home has been pretty nice :)

They are advertising a couple of new frappuccinos, I really like the Dark Cherry Mocha. Noelle, do you guys make those?

There is an odd feeling about needing a frappuccino on a humid 80 degree day while hearing Starbucks playing Christmas tunes in the background...

Bible Quizzing in Argentina

This was a big highlight of the trip for me!

Brother Sponsler & I met with the National Youth President and presented the Bible Quiz ministry along with Spanish language materials and rule manuals, etc.

The Youth President is very excited about the ministry and is ready to get started with it immediately!!! I am sure this will be a tremendous blessing to the youth of the churches here!!!

How do you say "Buzz" in Spanish?

I think something like "corte de pelo"...

We were getting kind of shaggy, so we tried out this barber. I ordered a #4 for Austin which is what he usually gets at home... Poor Austin didn't hardly have any hair left!!

No pics for the rest of us :)
