Jessica and I are squeezed into the back seat of the cab with our new friends Paul and Caroline, who days earlier had invited us to come with them on this cultural pilgrimage to the heart and soul of the Argentinean identity: a football game. (That's "soccer" for those of you playing along at home in the US.)

The day we landed in Buenos Aires, March 4th, 2005 marked the beginning of everything. I'm sure there are people in the world (perhaps even reading this right now) who think we were a bit crazy to do what we did. Selling everything we owned, quitting our jobs, and saying goodbye to life as we knew it to chase a dream. We might have seemed a bit crazy. But I wouldn't change any of our decisions for the world.

From time to time, your two traveling hedgehogs enjoy sharing some of the videos we've taken while traveling. The five videos highlighted below were all shot in Buenos Aires, Argentina between March-May 2005 during our round-the-world trip.

It's been several months since Tim shared thirteen of his favorite photos, and we thought it was high time I posted some of my favorites. The time frame for my favorite photos begins after the photos in Tim's post and includes many stops that we haven't written about yet, including our most recent stop: Machu Picchu, Peru.

It was bound to happen at some point. A disappointment, that is. It was bound to happen at some point with a trip of this length. I just had no idea it would mean we would have to skip an entire country.
