22nd August 2012 We get up early to make the most of our time in Buenos Aires and decide not to move into a dorm as everyone in the hostel seems to be a 50 year old man and Mark is nervous!!!! First stop on our list is La Boca, which is a half hour bus ride from the hostel and one of the poorer districts. It was established by Italian artists. When we get there it instantly makes us smile, the buildings are brightly coloured, caricature statues are in doorways a...

21st August 2012 We arrived in Corrientes at 6.20am, we had been warned that the buses to Buenos Aires only travelled at night so had to expect a 12 hour wait. Our guide book didn't have much to say of this town other than it was expensive and there was nothing to see. While Stevie got harassed by a homeless women I refreshed in the toilet. Karma have it as the homeless lady walked away from her bags a stray dog appeared and stole her biscuits. Brilliant. After ...

20th August 2012 Straight off the bus we head to the bus terminal to find out where and how we can get to Foz de Iguazu, Brazil. Looking around the station we get no luck then we bump into the German couple that we met in Bolivia. After a brief catchup we all decide to jump into a taxi to the Puerto de Iguazu, Argentina instead. This way all could share a taxi and he could stop at each border for us to do all the formalities of stamping in and out especially whe...

19th August 2012 Luckily when we got back to the station our bags were still there. However our seat numbers were moved! So we were now closer to the toilets. Probably moved to make way for locals. Not impressed. Eventually we boarded the bus and set off for Paraguay. The drive was fairly comfortable. When we got to the border at 5.30am it was a quick stamp out before driving for 2 hours to the next border. Unfortunately the bus broke down half way so we had...

By the time we got up and ready this morning it was already time to check-out and head to the airport. We said our goodbyes to Ray and hope to meet up again soon. The airport was tiny so it was pretty easy to find the check-in desks. Once we were checked in we browsed the net and Mark brought some Chocolate for the upcoming 20 hour bus ride from a supposedly famously chocolate shop ´Para Ti´. No sooner had we boarded the plane we were landing in Santa Cruz. T...
