Sat Dec 12 to Mon Dec 14
-red eye from Maui to LA and then flight from LA to Miami were uneventful and we got some sleep on each flight
. Felt pretty rested and alert in Miami as opposed to the haze on LA
-then the trouble began with mechanical problems on our redeye to buenos Aires on the 13th. We ended up in a hotel for an extra 24 hours and did not depart until the night of the 14th. Besides a quick workout in the gym, we spent most of the day between the airport and hotel confirming seats and trying to no avail to reclaim our checked baggage. Ugh
-so we missed our day in Buenos Aires and the cemetery and the money exchange. So be it.
