EL PERITO MORENO

Hola a todos los que seguís este blog... Carlos y yo hemos visitado el precioso Glaciar: Perito Moreno, en Argentina. Desde Puerto Natales salimos hacia las 7 de la mañana, y llegamos a la una y media de la tarde, más o menos. Pudimos ver este glaciar muy de cerca, a unos 300 metros, nos...

Pucará in Tilcara

Our plan had been to stay at Tilcara and visit the pre-Incan ''pucará'' before heading into Bolivia the next day, however Joanne had seen something about more ruins a bit closer to the border at '''Humahuaca''', and Enrique, the Argentinian manager of the hostel in Salta, had advised us that...

Humitos in Humahuaca

We arrived in Humahuaca and found our hostel. It was a bit disappointing: the beds were terrible, it was quite expensive, there was no internet, no other guests, and the owners were so old and doddery that I would have had difficulty communicating with them in English, but the didn't speak any....

Horses and Hangovers

The morning after unlimited meat and wine we had the inevitable hangovers and I only managed a short walk into town to draw money, passing some unusual urban art under construction, before we were picked up to go horse riding. The barbecue had taken its toll, too, on Stephen, who was...

Unlimited Meat and Red Wine

When our bus arrived in Salta, we obediently tipped the bag handler and reclaimed our bags, but I watched some people just after us refusing to tip him; I think they were saying that they had no money. He simply shrugged his shoulders, put the bags to one side, and continued with the next bag to...

Jesuit Ruins Then Paraguay

It was the start of another big day, and we had somehow not found time the previous day to book our accommodation then, in the morning we definitely didn't have time before catching our bus, so we were heading towards a town with little accommodation in it without having anything booked, an...

Vegetarian Meat

Just as we were about to go to sleep, there was a knock on our door and I opened it to find one of the staff members standing there: ''in the morning you must reconfirm the extra night'' he said. A bit strange, since we'd already been told ''no problem'', but maybe the computer system was down...

Awesome Iguazu Falls

We barely slept at all on the bus, despite it being comfortable, because two rows forward an old man kept coughing all night. He must have been seriously ill, because he coughed every ten seconds or so for nearly the whole night. Surely people that ill shouldn't be travelling? On top of that...

Junk Food Limbo

The next day was really hot and humid and the next stage in our journey to Iguazu was to get a bus across the border. Before we got on the bus, we used the last of our Uruguayan Pesos to buy a ''pancho'', which seems to be a bit of a national dish – in Argentina and Chile too – but it's just a...
