¡Navidad! (A little different this year...)

This was the one and only Christmas tree that I saw... Decorating trees just isn't a part of their culture here. Neither is leaving cookies for Papa Noel! So I guess that just proves that he grows his huge belly from the food that they leave him up in NORTH America! Hmm...    


Misael my roommate with Beby and I on the roof watching fireworks or fuegos artificiales for Navidad! It's quite the sight to see and hear. Untill 12:00am the 25th there's no one on the streets but soon after everyone's done toasting with their non alcoholic Adventist drinks, the streets are PACKED with people shouting and blowing up things... lets just say the fireworks here wouldn't be approved in the states! =) ....¡¡BOOM!!

Gathered with friends from the UAP, we had our own little reenactment of the Christmas story, Argentina style...
