Plaza 9 de Julio, Salta, Argentina.
Another gorgeous day in the northeast. This is the main town square memorial. Nice to sit and watch people and eat oranges.
I think i got chatted up by an old guy, heard the word 'soltera'
meaning single, amongst a range of other words. I stopped him halfway through what sounded like one long word, to say 'no entiendo (i don't understand) so he came closer and whispered a whole lot more in my ear. Funny, as if speaking quietly made understanding a whole lot clearer. Any way, to cut a long story short, i understood....'manana,las doce y media, aqui. Like meet me here at 12.30pm tomorrow. Had some other old guy in Tucuman(the next town) basically do the same, so i invented 'mi novia en uno chaqueta verde en el banco'...my boyfriend in the green jacket in the Bank. That seemed to work. I was eating an orange then too. Maybe i should switch to bananas?
