Starting to feel like home

Once my phone is charged, I'll post another entry with some pictures and details of the house (and if you video call me on google hangout, I can give you the official tour!)  ;)

We are still loving Cordoba, and it keeps getting better as we get more settled in.  Our new house is about 1 km away from the main street, which is pretty similar to any of the squares in  Somerville or Cambridge.    It's great.  We have a very large supermarket, a produce place, a couple of butcher shops, some bakeries, cafes, restaurants, shops...pretty much everything we need right within walking distance.  Now Andy, pay special attention to this.  Cars do not stop for pedestrians.  Even at cross walks.  If you want to cross, you need to make sure you have a CLEAR path to do so.  Even if a car is approaching, they won't stop to let you go.   Bill and I are more chicken than the Argentinians and we end up waiting at crosswalks long after others have crossed.


On Saturday we went to the zoo in Nueva Cordoba.  Quite a hike, especially since mom and dad were sick!!   Liam really enjoyed it though!  They had several species that we hadn't seen before, as they were mostly unique to Argentina, The Amazon, and a couple of other places in South America.  Liam loved looking at all the different fish at the aquarium!

Today Liam really started to stand up on his own for longer periods of time.  I guess he'll be walking pretty soon!    Will update more later but time to take advantage of Liam's nap time and get some studying done!
