El fin

The beginning of the end is upon us.  On Monday we went to an estancia outside the city.  It is similar to a ranch.  At this estancia we started the day by getting a tour.  We then moved on to riding horses. For most of us, myself included, riding these horses was better than the time we rode horses in Cordoba. The reason for this was because we got to gallop and make the horses somewhat run.  After this ride we had lunch, a variety of meat, and vanilla ice cream, followed by a round of soccer before ending our day with with another horse ride.

This goodbye will not be an easy one. We have made a lot of connections and saying goodbye to them is not fun. Especially since everyone has been so open to us. The people that we have met along with dulce de leche, empanadas, kiosco at every block, chorros and el mate will all be missed.  Lastly I want to say thank you to Eugenia, the Colegio del Salvador program coordinator; Fefo, a counselor from Colegio del Salvador; Esteban, our tour guide from Cordoba; the cafeteria staff; Mr. Rakovec and Ms. Basin; and all those who made this experience so great. Good bye Argentina.
