We arrived in Buenos Aires in the middle of afternoon and took a cab to our hostel which we had booked on line. When we arrived they didn't have any record of our booking so instead of being in a double room they had to put us in a four bed dormitory but thankfully they said that nobody else would be checking in to the room. It was actually a bit of a money saver as we only had to pay the price of two dormitory beds.Once we had settled in to the hostel we heade...

We arrived in Parana in the early afternoon and soon found a cheap hotel. Once we have checked in and dropped our bags we decided to head down to the waterfront where there was suppose to be a selection of places to eat.

We arrived fairly early in the morning at Mendoza bus station after a fairly sleepless night for Sue and I. To make things worse Maeve and Anthony had barely been awake the whole journey. Once we had got off the bus we were bombarded with offers from hostel representatives. One hostel offered free wine 24 hours a day, against our better judgement we went for one of the alternatives which was a nice little hostel with some outside seating and a very small swimmi...
