Historical Argentina!

Today we went to the historical part of Argentina! Where Argentina was found! It is the 2-3 story buildings that are painted in all different colors. It is said that when the ships landed they took apart their ships and made the houses, it is also where tango was found! We went back downtown to look for some Argentine shirts and while we were there we saw the little kids again except this time I saw a 10 year old holding a 3 month old and they were filthy. Their mothers are under shade waiting for them to bring back money they've earned. It really is a pitiful site :( We also so the Pink House which is considered the White House here! Yesterday we went to an historical cemetary that has amazing plaques/buildings. The families have to pay rent and the death could've been in the 1800's. If the family can not pay their lease they will remove the remains. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving and we are having it with another missionary family! I am not sure if we are having an American Thanksgiving or an Argentine! Can't wait!
