Greetings from Salta :-) Again we arrived late afternoon/evening after enjoying wine and lunch in Cafayate. We checked into our hostel then met for the worlds best steak! And well I have to say I think it was the yummiest steak I have ever eaten and they're huge!!! All of us shared one between two and I struggled to even manage that :-) we were all completely stuffed by the end and it was quite late so we took an early night. The next morning a few of us met...

After arriving back from Rio, myself and Vic were really tired but so pleased to get off that bus! We grabbed a taxi to our hotel,checked in,showered and headed out to try and sort a few things out. I was full of cold! So one of my first stops was the chemist! I felt so rough! I stocked up on vitamin c!! That evening we had our pre-departure meeting, met most of our group but were also told we would be spending another day in Buenos Aires whilst we waited for ...
