I don't know if that has deteriorated since the peso crashed, though.
Thanks, Allegra. You certainly do get around!
I met a fellow at church who works for NASA and is on loan to the Argentine Space Program. Yes, they have one and will soon launch a satellite. He says that BA is still pretty much a sure bet for a delightful and safe vacation but declined to predict the future.
I've traveled quite a bit in Europe, Asia and Turkey, which is as much Middle East as I'm up for, but have never been to South America. Have any other suggestions? I tend to like cities better than scenery.
