My Dream Vacation

We had one a couple of years ago. Took a plane from Sydney, Australia to Buenos Aires and upon landing we were met and taken to Lina's Tango House. The first impression was...uuhhh what is this. It was rather small and there was nobody around....until about 1200 when people started waking up!! We wondered what was going on but it was soon explained. This is what we did from then on. We congregated with the rest of the guests in the courtyard for an al fresco dinner and a sometimes tango lessons. Around midnight we took a taxi to a nearby dance hall which was always absolutely packed with afficionados dancing tango. We normally finished off the night with a morning coffee before going to bed and waking up at....yes you guessed it right..around midday. ! It was a sensational stay but we had only booked for 5 nights ( as I was not sure what we had booked) so then we moved to Sheraton and as you know they are OK but completely boring after the stay at Lina's.

We enjoyed all of B.A., the people, the food, the music and the tango.

After Buenos Aires we took a plane to Miami, picked up a car at the airport and drove to South Beach, parked the car and when we came back a couple of hours later there were some nice bodies drawn in chalk nearby the car. We enquired what it was all about and were told there had been some shooting earlier!! Lucky we weren't there.

Drove down to Key West and enjoyed some touring down there before taking the next flight to Las Vegas and say whatever you think about Las Vegas it is the most entertaining place on earth. Sure there is gambling as well but we hardly had time for it. There is so much else to see, shows, dining, just walking along the Strip, shopping, touring etc.

Drove to Los Angeles and stayed in Santa Monica for a week before retuning home.
