I found a site for other resonably priced hotels in Argentina. The hotels
that are worthwhile are Constitucion Palace Hotel and Marbella (quads for

Argentina. FEDERICO, thank you for translating!!
so what do you guys think? should we go for this? the following
is what RAPEE sent me a few days ago in regards to this hotel (she
did a search on the 'net under "cheap hotels in buenos aires" and
came up with this one). i've translated, so please read and vote
if you want to stay here. (FEDERICO, if i am mis-translating at
any point, feel free to correct it, PLEASE.) i'm not sure where
i'll be staying, yet, as i might know someone who knows someone
in argentina, but i'll make reservations for those interested,
unless someone else wants to WHICH I'D REALLY APPRECIATE. again,
i'll need to know
--your full name
--how many nights you're staying
--how many people are in your party
--if you'd rather have a single, a double, or a triple
--if you want to be assigned a roommate
--if you have a preferance for male or female roommates
--if you want one or two roommates
--whether you prefer the hats or the haircuts....er, ooops,
never mind

whatever part of the world you are in. :) thanks for asking
and sorry for not making that clear. please note that i'm going
to ask for FIELD GENERAL ADMISSION "SEATING" and that's it. i
am not about to deal with trying to get different seats for
different people (sorry please). also, i'll ask for field seating,
but i don't know what they'll tell me. i'll let everyone know
as soon as i contact them (won't contact them until after
SUNDAY DECEMBER 28 when i know how many people are Definitely
going to buy tickets).
thanks for reading!!
looking for the swing and the sway,
elena
