History


It all started with the winning of 2 first class Continental RTW tickets from the American Express Wishlist way back in 2007 equivalently delivered with 560K miles. 6 years later with the merger of United and Continental, topping off the account to 700K miles with credit card offers, and a planned Leave of Absence from work, this trip is actually taking place starting 4/3/2013 and ending 6/28/2013.

First Parrilla Dinner

Here's a look at our first Parrilla (traditional grill) dinner at Don Julio in the Palermo
Soho area last night in Buenos Aires. It was delicious. Take note of
the low wine bottle prices (those are in pesos). We ate an offal
platter, grilled provolone cheese, an interesting kiwi and butter
lettuce salad and some of the best grilled steak I have had in a long time!
We followed up with a homemade flan for dessert.
