El colectivo

Remember how I said people drive crazy out here. There is no real structured flow to the traffic yet I haven't seen any accidents...until Thursday. I was on the 141 bus, a seat had just opened up and I was happily bouncing along when...WHAM. The bus ran other something. My first thought was, Good, that definitely wasn't a person. The bus driver pulled up to the curb to check and see what had happened. I never actually found out what happened (though I think he hit a parked car) because another bus came within 5 minutes to pick us up.

Just this morning, actually, I was awaken by the sound of a car crashing into another car. I hat that sound period but waking up to it makes it worst.

Thank goodness I have the blood of Jesus and angels to protect me because it seems like the Argentinians are losing the game of chicken they play everyday with in their driving. Maybe it because it is getting cooler (it is Fall now).
