LOL, I actually live in Buenos Aires right now. But oh, could I share some stories about this trip, like how Argentine immigration wouldn’t allow me and my son to leave the country at first because my husband wasn’t traveling with us and I didn’t have ‘permission’. It got taken care of by my husband, who was in NYC. The Argentine government website wasn’t clear on this issue. One page said 14 years old was the age requirement. Another page said 16 years old. Another page said 18 years old. We were told by people we know hear that our son would be fine because he was 16 years old. When we first went through security, we were stopped, and my son was asked how old he was. He said he was 16, and they waved us right through. Then we got to immigration leaving Argentina, and it became a nightmare. We ultimately missed the first week of our vacation in the United States, which was supposed to be in New York City. We finally met my husband in Florida and we’re able to spend the rest of our visit with my parents. I’m originally from Florida, and my husband is British. I lived in London for several years in the 1990s (was there when Princess Diana died). He works for an international bank in operations, and was given the opportunity to set up a call center down here. We’ve been here two years now, with one year to go. Luckily, this is the only bad experience we’ve had since we’ve been here. As a whole, Argentinians are lovely people. People look after each other here in a way that’s just different to the US. I’m actually writing a book about coming here, before, during, and up until we leave, LOL.
