Live From the Red Carpet...

The expat community came through... 10 minutes ago the phone rang...turn to channel 49 was the message. I was just in time to hear Forrest Whitaker. Now Eddie Murphy is on...followed by Kate Winslet. Oh, there is Meryl Streep in the background... I love her! And now Queen Latif who is presenting with John Travolta. I am so looking forward to hearing Ellen as host for the evening. On TNT (the dubbed spanish version) the carpet walk was in Spanish but at that point it was making sense since the interviewees were Jenifer Lopez, Penelope Cruz, etc. And when sipping Malbec anything (or just about anything) makes sense. I have to say though that I am wondering about this Litle Miss Sunshine for best picture!?!

This is the culmination of a great day of culture. Walking this morning in Parque 3 de Febrero, the home of the yoga and salsa classes, I heard the Buenos Aires Symphony. That was a treat! Then this afternoon it was a visit to Museo de Bellas Artes... The exhibit on the first floor was fabulous...Chagall, Miro, Kandinsky, Rivera, Rodin, Monet, Cezanne, Renoir....Must I really leave?

Did they really just say two hours to showtime... that must be a mistake. It is 10:00PM here. Hope you are enjoying the red carpet walk and chatter about the gorgeous gowns with me!!!
