... upside down, or maybe i was reading it upside down. Either way, i went the long way around to finding most things. Doesnīt help when you mistake Congress for a cathedral. Saw a lot of major sites / symbols, some unintentional: Plaza San Martin, congress, obelisk, plaza de mayo and Kilkenny pub. Booked myself into the Milhouse Hostel for the weekend, and this place has a party reputation. It is regarded as a ýouthī hostel, so iīm bound to fit in.

... there to represent unity and peace and are called 'Buddy Bears'. We took a few photos of the countries we have visited on this trip, although Laos, Malaysia and Singapore weren't there. We then went and chilled on the park grass for a couple of hours reading and thrashing Lorna at cards......again! It was a really nice spot to chill for the afternoon. Afterwards, we took a walk back up Av. Florida (the shopping street) towards the ...

... here in the summer. Tango shows are everywhere, so are the Argentinian Parrilla BBQ restuarantes. The night usually ends after 2 to 3 am with a drink at a cafe or bar while non-stop football highlight are shown on TV. A stroll through avenida 9 de Julio, wides boulevard in the world, is a must at sunset. All in all me and Juliette enjoyed this city of the beautiful wind. We find it more than relaxing and a good rest stop to recover our tired bodies before moving on.

... the block and we are talking about what looks like a security station but with no one inside and then we look back and see that we just passed the other synagogue! It is another nondescript building, with no adornment whatsoever, just a granite front with a Jewish star over the door. We are somewhat stunned. Security is clearly an issue here as in Israel. We wonder what it is like to have to live with such security. We find a taxi ...

... host. We met up and walked to his apartment, and have hung out most of the afternoon. Well, after having lunch I had a nap, where I slept way too long, and then we went for a walk checking out a park with a lot of the sculptures as well as a famous sculpture in honor of the street dogs. Anywho, that's about all I have energy for for now... tilll' next time... PHOTOS

From Salta to Iguazu Falls we decided to break up the long bus ride in Resistencia. There is really nothing to do here. It is a town filled with random statues (over 300 of them) and crazy big bugs. Our room was full of cockroachs, but at least it was the small ones I am used to see in my NYC apt, and not the 4" big ones running around outside!

... statue photos" - well you have to, donīt you?! and now just writing this, waiting for the bus - how thrilling! But....I have just taken my first malaria tablet of the trip, and I am VERY excited about where Iīm going now, even if I am a mosquitoes breakfast, lunch and dinner!! (Actually, I'm a bit behind with this, so I'm already at the next place...Iguazu Falls...it's fab, more to follow!)

I was using the town of Corrientes as a transport hub on my way back to Bolivia. Itīs a fairly pleasant town but without much for tourists. Not that I minded since I was only here a few hours. I didnīt have a map of Corrientes in my guide book but they happily gave me one at tourist information. I killed time by visiting the small colonial history museum and taking a walk beside the river. I just had time to watch Arsenal and Barcelona in the champion's league final before I had to ...

... was awfully cheap, and we enter the rather grubby corridors and ascend the steep stairs into the stadium. Once we are in, we realize our grievous mistake. We are at the south end of the stadium, standing room only, and half filled with fanatical fans waving black and red flags. Hold it a minute! Independiente is red and white! We are in the Colon supporters section! We look across the pitch and see the elegant preferred section on each side as well as the ...
