Because of the trip to Johnny B. Goods…it was another late
night. I think when I finally opened my eyes for the first time…it was past
noon! (The frequency of that happening is starting to increase….Hello Argentina
time. LOL!)
On the bright-side, when you wake up after 12:00 it’s still
time to eat…just a different meal of the day! Since Gabi, Nico’s mom, was still
visiting family in Cordoba, Nico’s dad, Richardo, made a quick trip to the
store and grabbed some raviolis. OH MAN! DELICIOUS! Thanks once again, Wagner
family!
The much of the afternoon was spent watching some more of
the US Open; this time it was the women’s finals match. I had a great time
watching the match with Nico and his dad…you can tell they have passion for the
sport.
There is no better way than practicing some of the tennis
moves you learned while watching the US Open. After Friday’s warm up session on
the practice courts at the Wagner’s tennis club, it was time to get real! Today
marked the first time I have ever played tennis on clay courts; add that to my
book of firsts. I must say, I had a blast playing against Nico, but he would
totally demolish me in a tournament. He has to be a 15 on a 10 scale. LOL!
My evening was spent at Nico’s aunt’s house where his family
was having a Sunday meal. I met a lot of his family…cousins, grandparents,
uncles, aunts and event dogs…u name them, I’ve probably met them. The family
was EXTREMLY welcoming, I started to wonder…was I home? Some of the younger
cousins were practicing their English on me, and it was humorous and fun at the
same time. Saying the goodbyes, I was told by numerous relatives…best of luck
with my future and visit again.
