El corte del puente de Gualeguaychu llevado adelante por 3 aburridos vecinos nos llevo hasta Colon, en la Prov. de Entre Rios. Desde alli pasamos la frontera y llegamos a Paysandu, una calida ciudad con un lindo encanto provinciano. Muy activa de dia y con una noche movidita.

... pesos UR = 1$ Gasoline: about 30 pesos a liter, thats 1.50$ . Thats expensive But other than energy, thing are pretty cheap here. The country is very clean, people are relaxed and very friendly, its very save here too. I didnt go to Montevideo and punta leste, instead crossed inland and spend to nice evenings in countrytowns mingling with locals. That was probably not the worst idea.

After Igazu, we bused back down the mid east to Corrientes, Mercedes and finally Carlos Pelligrini, which is the best spot to visit the wetland area around Lake Ibera. It is a magnificent lake.

... the cooler stone pavement of the early afternoon. Mostly big dogs, some wolverine and some beautiful, Some past their sell-by date showing the scars of war. Saying "Hello" in the mornings means you have adopted them, they are happy to follow you anywhere, They wait while you hide to ...

Liebig was a village built by the English, who opened a massive meat-packing factory here, and if you were alive at any time between the 20s and the 70s, then the chances are you've eaten a can of corned beef that started its life in this very place. I found it bizarre to keep coming across traces of the English in this country where they really had no business (they also built the railways here), but then reflected that it ...

Although the title of this entry is envocative of 70s B-movie featuring a giant citric monster lumbering over distant hills juicing people with its deadly rind, the story actually begins several weeks ago, with small, cute and harmless caramelitos. These are small toffees and fruity chews displayed according to type in a tapestry of perspex racks in just about every kiosko in the country. I discovered them soon after leaving Mendoza, and came ...
