The Presidential Debate in Buenos Aires

Though traveling, I'm compelled to do my part in the upcoming election and am lucky that I'm currently settled in Buenos Aires to do so. I recently turned in an absentee ballot request form at the US Embassy, and last night, I was able to watch the presidential debate at a local bar that showed the debate on two different projection screens. By the time the debate started, it was standing room only. The crowd consisted mostly of Americans traveling or living here in the city. Once the debate ended, the bar returned to it's normal operations and started up some dance music. I stuck around, joined by Adam, some newfound friends, and a random group of Argentinians out for a night on the town dressed up in costumes. I think I spent a few songs dancing next to a popcorn box.
