So How It Came to Be

I booked a pretty nice B&B in a pretty nice neighborhood's of Buenos Aires well ahead of time, and paid in advance (house policy and all...)
Those familiar with my original itinerary may have noticed that the Rio part was longer than planned. Much longer than planned. I originally was supposed to stay there for 4 days, but it sort of extended itself to 12 or so. Now, as the I kept changing my Rio dates, I also had to change my dates for Buenos Aires, so I kept advising that B&B on my new dates hoping they would still have available rooms.
I suspect this practice may have ticked them off a bit... One fine morning I get an email advising that the B&B will be closing down for renovations, refunding my deposit and saying Hasta Never.
Had it not been Rio and sunny and great, something like that would get me really stressed out. But it WAS Rio and it WAS sunny and I just thought I'd think about what to do a little later. Maybe after a nap.
And then I read in some book about how much more fun it is to rent apartments rather than stay at hotels and I'm thinking to myself: DUH. Twenty five minutes later, I have secured myself a brand new apartment on the 15th floor of this brand new building (named Hollywood II- try to beat that for camp!) for two weeks. It even ended up costing less!
