In Argentina, not Chile today

I won't be posting much today except to let you all know that Maggie and I arrived in Buenos Aires on Wed. and it is a most amazing city and no quakes here. I expected Denise to arrive to join us today but unfortunately she is still in Santiago where she was to spend a day and a half and the earthquake struck! Last night at 4 a.m. she was wakened by the quake and evacuated from the hotel (Radisson Plaza where we had stayed overnight on Tuesday. We are trying to get her here but airport is closed, likely until Thursday, they tell her, so we are trying to find wheeled transport. Unfortunately,Santiago is 780 miles from Buenos Aires. Anyhow, she is safe although shaken and I am terribly worried but hope she is united with us soon. She and I, on our travels, are always planning for "grand adventures". I could have done with her not having this one without me. Sorry, don't mean to say I am missing her excitement but I am missing her and hope she is here soon. Although we have seen lots here, I'm just not in th mood to report on anything else at the moment. On the good news side, Maggie's cousin Emily arrived safely from Florida this morning and it is good to have her with us. Hopefully better news tomorrow..........lots of love, Sally
