Presidential treatment, ballet & 10k!

Passed a big milestone this week--I now have less than 100 days left in Argentina! Time seems to be going by so fast, especially with everything I've been up to this week. Last Thursday, the other OSU girls & I spent some quality time with our friend Coleton in the presidential hotel suite that he'd rented for the week! It was great to stay up late eating cookies, watching my first ever episodes of Glee, and having an old-fashioned sleepover in a gorgeous hotel room.

The next day, we took a tour of Teatro Colón, the most famous opera house in the city and one of the top five concert venues in world for its acoustics.

After our soccer game on Saturday, some of the girls & I went back to Teatro Colón that night to see a ballet called Onieguin, which was amazing--I can't wait to see another show there!

Yesterday I got out of bed bright & early to run 10k (6.2 miles) in the Maratón UB 2011, a race sponsored by my university. It ended up being a ton of fun, and I was relieved that the thunderstorm let up long enough for me to finish the race without being struck by lightning!
