Buenos Aires, Argentina

We got 5 days in the city, which was just about enough even though I really love this place. We stayed in the Milhouse hostel which is a great spot for meeting people and generally good craic. We managed to fit in most of the touristy stuff, we went to a Boca match on Sunday stakehouse on tuesday, trip to Tigre on Wednesday kind of quaint old place (was grand but wouldnt go mad).

10 of us (5 Irish, 4 English, 1 Dutch) went to the Cafe Tortini to watch a live Tango show, which was pretty entertaining, the musicians were class. Other than that, the people of BA made a great impression and I have expanded my spanish vocabulary by about 10 words.

Today we got a boat from BA to Colonial in Uruguay, boat was grand but there wasnt anything to do there so we only spent about 4 hours there which was more than enough, but we did get an extra stamp on the passport so it was all worthwhile !!

Leaving for the airport in 5 hours, flying to Quito via Lima, so that will make 4 countries in the previous 20 hours. Goodluck
