From the "Naturale" Tour Blog
/The Quiet After the Storms
Happy Holidays from Buenos Aires, Argentina!
A few nights ago we were awakened about 3 am by a violent thunder and lightning storm and a driving rain. Our month-long rental is a ninth floor apartment in the beautiful Recoleta neighborhood of this beautiful Argentinian city. We’ve got an outdoor patio with sweeping views but during this wicked storm the furniture almost blew away in the unusually strong wind. Nine floors from terra firma was too many!
The bad weather didn’t last too long and thankfully led to a glorious sunrise. But this wasn’t our only recent stormy aftermath!
We arrived in Buenos Aires the 8th of December but the previous two weeks found us at home in Portland, Oregon USA working long hours around our house engaged in what some describe as a Swedish death cleaning. After 14 years in our townhouse we were waist deep in too much stuff we’d accumulated over the years. And the time had come to clean up and clean out in preparation for our family to move in while we continue to travel. Only after this stormy death cleaning activity could we get back out on the road where we want to be, exploring the world, digging deep for divine clarity within ourselves and enjoying our retirement.
And we survived this other storm to tell you all about it in our most recent video podcast that we recorded with our friend Nancy Ward.
This winter’s travels find us enjoying Argentina, Uruguay, Brazil and Chile.
