We made it to Argentina!

Day 1:
February 5, 2013


Hey, it's Tiffany blogging here today! Everyone else was really exhausted from our total 25 hours of flying from Raleigh to Buenos Aries, Argentina. So, it looks like I got stuck with blogging duties today. The five of us got to RDU at 3:15pm, caught our 5:15 flight to New York City. We had a fifty-minute layover until our next flight to Santiago, Chile. In Santiago we had a ten hour layover before we could board our final flight to Buenos Aires, Argentina.
While waiting in RDU, Sydney was freaking out about her very first flight. Despite her intial fears Sydney actually ended up loving the plane ride up to NYC! Rachel and Lexie both were feeling a little queasy while on the flight but luckily they didn't end up needing the airsickness bag. That would have been gross!
We got to NYC at 6:10pm and ate dinner at the airport while we waited for our flight to Chile. I can't believe how ridiculously overpriced our "New York style" pizza was. But then again, we were in an airport which are infamous for being overpriced.
We caught our flight to Santiago, Chile at 7:00pm. We couldn't really see much from above because it was night outside. With all time zone changes, we ended up arriving at 7:30am on February 6 Chilean time. We had to suffer a tourturous ten hour layover until our next flight. I think we were all exahusted and irritable from being on a plane all day long.
Finally, our plane landed in Buenos Aries, Argentina! The flight from Santiago to Buenos Aires ended up only being an hour and twenty-five minutes. We couldn't wait to get off of the plane and start our vacation.
The flag of Argentina!
