Monday 3rd August 2008 and we were in our final destination for Argentina. After a 15 hour punishment in first class we arrived around mid day somewhat refreshed. The sun was shining and a pool awaited us at our hostel - Iguazu Hostel Inn. After a quick taxi ride we turned up at what many have described as the best hostel is SA. It looked good. We also had heard the staff were the biggest waste of space known to man. This we were about to find out. We started off...

The Saturday night back in Argentina and we checked into a different hostel. The Che Hostel. Different location and a little bit better than our last BA one and we chucked our bags in and headed out. We fancied actually catching a film this time so off we went to the same place as before. Again there was a massive cue for the cinema so we had to settle for a Chinese. It made a change. The Sunday and it was our last day for Buenos action. We headed out for break...

Thursday 24th July and we had landed in Buenos Aires. For all the stories and good things we had heard we couldn't wait to see what it was packing.

After another overnight bus we were in the land of the vineyards. Mendoza is the place to go for red wine and whilst we know many a statistic to say how much they produce we'll just say it's absolutely s*** loads to be scientifically correct. Having arrived ridiculously early we got to our hostel and had to have some nap time on the sofer. Not a problem and by mid afternoon we were refreshed, booked up for a wine tour and ready to hit the town and see how Mendoza...

Our bus arrived in Cordoba on the Thursday morning at around 07:30. We sleepily got off and again refused to tip the baggage guy for his 2 seconds of work. We'll get them off ourselves mate. Jumped into a taxi and cruised on down to our hostel. We dumped our bags and headed off for a mid afternoon steak at Le Gatto. That's the problem with this place - you can get it at any time! Not feeling too guilty we got ourselves some tickets to see Batman! We'd been waitin...
