Saturday 3 March 2007
Today Ryan and I went for a picnic with our friend Paula at the Ecological Reserve, a swampy bit of ground just outside the city. (I guess it was originally created for a football stadium that was never built.) It was so lovely to get out of the city, to breath clean air blowing off the river, to see a little green. This is some of the quintessential Argentine pampas grass that is all over the prairies here. (Which is what BA would be if it weren't BA!)
The only glitch in the whole day is the fact that we both got terribly sunburnt. We were sitting right next to the water, and a very stiff breeze was coming off the water - I was freezing. We were sitting in the sun to keep warm, but it was so cold we didn't even think about sunscreen. Foolish.
