$3000 + $4000

I missed a day or four, but I'm just going to stick with the $3000 that comes next. After a long chat with an Argentine former-coworker, I'm ready to go back to Argentina.

Looks like a flight is $1200 - done and done.

Do a package deal on Orbitz and I can get a MONTH in a fancy Buenos Aires hotel for another $1000.

That leaves only $800 for food, ground transportation, other hotels and shopping.... so I'm going to take the next $4000 and spend it today. I'm going to add a 14 Day south american cruise departing from Buenos Aires and going south to Ushuaia, around the tip and up to Santiago, Chile. That's just $1600, but I'm pretty sure between leather, tips, steak and incidentals - I'm going to blow through the $7000 in about a month.
