First town in Argentina
... a cable car in Salta going up to a view point but we met some girls who said it wasn’t really worth it. All the museums were shut on Monday so that was disappointing.

La circulation en Argentine ne diffère pas trop de la conduite Marseillaise, donc j'oublie les feux, m'impose et nous voila partis dans les montagnes.
