Travel with Jen and Kate!
Salta
Arrived from the border (La quica) via Juyal - a long travelling day! Stayed at backackers hostel in the centre. very convenient! The central square is very pretty and argetina is so different to Bolivia and peru - much more European cafe culture. They have flushing toilets, u don't neet to take your own toilet paper everywhere u go and the food is normal! Wondered around the shops and had an amazing dinner (kate - a massive steak!! but she finished it all!! and Jenny - a gorgeous lomo estagonoffe!)
19th
Nice hostel - breakfast included! went up in some cable carts for a great view over the city (its massive and all amerian in squares). We decided to walk down and explore the surrounding areas and stumpled across a mall!! Also we saw our first Mcdonalds (no we didn't go in - we know the rule!) We went to the cinema and watched the 'The Break up'in english! good girly film we even shed a few tears of true emotion! Went to a joint hostel BBQ which was cool on a roof terrace. Salta lager and steak - brilliant! Our spainish was really tested as we sat on the only 'spanish speaking' table!!! All good fun -left at 3 after guitar jamming sessions! (not by us!!) and were walked home by the hostel dog (literally, it followed us the 10 blocks back!)
20th
Woke up with 20 minutes to pack, check out and have breakfast!! Yeah we didn't make it, but it didn't seem to matter! Spent the day visiting the 'history of the north'musuem relaxing in the sun in the square, wondering around street markets and some more relaxing before the overnight bus (13 hrs!) to Cordaba at 9pm.
