ARGENTINA

Argentina is so nice, its so great to be in civilisation with good meat, coffee, wine and buses, amongst other things obviously... BUT it is so expensive, so parents, get your credit cards ready...! :s
Salta was really nice, but we got a bit ´coffee time´/ clothes shopping happy, and had to adjust to the shock of the increased prices. we went to a cool museum of Contemporary art in the plaza, and met with a friend from the Parque which was nice.
We´re in a place called Mendoza now, a huge wine growing area, so we´'re doing a bike riding wine tour tomorrow where you cycle from vinyard to vinyard. Should be fun, as long as we can still cycle by the end of it, as we have been warned.
Football- lots of it as its the South America cup. All the hostels have limited reservations. Will try and buy some Argentinian football shirts for dad and bro in BA when we go to a match hopefullly...
Sorry for the lack of blogging recently- inevitably its become harder and harder as the time is running out on our travels :(
