Buenos Aires Goodbye Dinner

Last night myself and a few friends dined at Bogota, http://www.bogotabistro.com/ , a Latin Bistro on Park Slope's illustrious 5th Avenue. I had never been to Bogota before, but a former roommate of mine, Celeste, works there and had recommended it to me many times as a good place to go. I wanted to find an appropriate place to go before my trip to Buenos Aires, and there food is pan Latin. I also noticed that Wednesdays they had happy hour all night and live music. This seemed like the right place to go.

All I can say is...wow. The food and the atmosphere was great. When I got there, a few people were already at the bar making use of the happy hour and eating appetizers



I brought my new camera. It's the Pentax K10D, http://www.dpreview.com/articles/pentaxk10d/, an awesome new 10 Megapixel camera. I am still trying to figure out how to use it correctly, so even though I took a lot of photos, there were only a few that were worth posting (sorry I wasn't able to get everyone). It's difficult using this camera without a flash in a low lighting situation, but I will definitely figure out how to do it.






Everyone had a great time and really liked the food. I was drinking a strawberyy and guava mojito. Nice.

After all the goodbyes were said, Kat and I went back to my place and played with my roommate Courtland's dog, Mia, for about a half hour.






Fuck this dog is cute :)

So I am catching a plane with my friend Ezra tonight to head off to Buenos Aires. This is where we are staying http://www.stayinbuenosaires.com/pringles1200_e.htm . I got a call this morning telling me it won't be available for the first night we're there, so they will be putting us up in a bed and breakfast. Boo hoo I guess.

The next time I post, I will be in South America, probably hung over.

Till then...


P.S.: Anyone who wants me to send them a postcard from BA should email me their address at M_Drumm@yahoo.com.
