As I sit at my computer looking out at the snow blowing and drifting I have been exploring a few sites that give good information about Buenos Aires in particular and Argentina in general.

Look at this site to see the map of BsAs that shows the neighborhoods. We will be staying at Hotel Embajador. It is located in the Microcentro area close to subways and walking distance to the language instutute. You can see examples of rooms at http://www.embajadorhotel.com.ar/ We will be sharing double rooms so you may want to think about with whom you wish to room.
Here are some other interestning sites!
