GRAEME'S BLOG DAY TWELVE

Look, this was a travelling day. None of us were looking forward to it. Check out by 12, shopping and sightseeing until 5, autopilot for 24 hours.

Two things. First the quote of the day, from a plastic bag found in the Mayflower Suites Hotel:

“LUEGO DE USARLAS, ROGAMOS NO TIRARLAS EN EL INODORO. EMPLEE ESTA BOLSA, LA QUE SERA RETIRADA POR PERSONAL FEMENINO PARA SU INCINERACION.

PLEASE, DON'T USE THE WATER CLOSET. USE THIS BAG. MAIDS WILL TAKE THEM OFF TO BE BURNED.”

Go MAIDS! Vamos PERSONAL FEMENINO!

Sorry, I know it is schoolboy humour but so what? It adds to my collection:

France (Rodez): “Allez les Mademoiselles!”
Swedish (Pingvins): “Kor Jungfrus!”

Otherwise, it would probably have to be “Vamos Chicas!” and I think we need to reserve that phrase.

The other thing: If you get bored in Buenos Aires, you are just not paying attention.
