Day 14: Tuesday, July 12, 2011

We began the day pretty slowly.  We had burgers for lunch with Horacio and Gisella.  After lunch we went for a nice walk with Gisella and got ice cream.  It was actually hot today, so we could sit outside to eat it.  Kristin got peach and strawberry cream ice creams and I got dulce de leche with chocolate chips and chocolate with almonds.  Apparently Argentineans eat ice cream like it’s their job.  Gisella who is tiny ate a huge ice cream cone the same size as mine before I even got to the cone.  We took a different route home and stopped at a little, independent second hand clothes store.  Around 6 we had a little snack before we got ready to go to our second soccer game, Uruguay versus Mexico.  We left around 7:30 with Horacio, Milton, and Nicolás.  We got a closer parking spot, and it was a bit smoother and quicker getting to the stadium.  The game was very fun.  There were quite a few missed opportunities by Uruguay, but it was fun nonetheless to see all the players on Uruguay’s team, Forlan, Suarez, Lugano, Pereira, etc.  Uruguay won 1-0.
