Hotel Almeria Salta

... Woolworth’s than Idaho Falls). We spent two days exploring, and by exploring I mean following the carefully laid out walkways from whence you are physically unable to stray, with one quick boat ride into the heart of the falls thrown in for good measure. However, like only a select few other places we’ve been, I feel I must just shut up and let the photos do the talking. Not my style, exactly, but neither were parachute pants and I still stuck with those for a ...

... being left in the valleys that were formed when the Andes were formed. As the water burned off salt was left behind, now it's a way of making a living for the people that live nearby and they have a system of cutting out pools in order to "harvest" the salt once they dry up. The vast expanses of space also allowed us to take some pretty cool pictures! On the way back to Salta we stopped for a look around the market town of Purmamarca. Unfortunately because ...

... as most movies here are with spanish subtitles so that the locals can learn english more and more. It was half price also as it was Wednesday so only ended up costing us 1.80 eurs each to watch the film. <br>Thursday came and the city seemd shut down-we wondered why and then it hit us that it was 9th July which is their independance day (many streets or metro stops in cities in Argentina are called 9 de julio so we figured it was an important day). So we just took ...

... Cordoba, when we were walking down we met one of them coming up the stairs, some people were running, it was hard enough coming down the stairs not to mind coming up them. Its mad really we keep meeting the same people everyone is going in the same direction!! The Germans as we like to call them, no doubt we will see them again!!!<br>By the time we reached ground level both our legs were shaking!! It was hilarous when we stood still our bodys were vibrating very strange sensation!!<br ...

... Cairo" a place which due to it's cheap beer and wine and lively choice of music has quickly become our favourite venue for beginning our night. Not long after we had our first drink in Cairo the big metal doors were shut behind us and this bar became a club. It wasn't long before we were dancing and as always being hounded by Argentines. Whether we like it or not we all look foreign, blue eyes and hair colour which isn't black give us away ...

... sat in our seats and the bus pulled away. Ten minutes later, one of the bus officials came down the aisle and informed us we had just missed our stop at the Tupiza "bus station". He agreed to drop us off somewhere where we could hitch a ride into town easily. We were literally dropped off in the cold (we were now at 2,700m in the altiplano) darkness with not a building or human being in sight. Thankfully, in about ten minutes, we were ...

... the place was nice, but average food. Next day we took the Cuesta de Lipan,an uphill route up to almost 4,200 meters, and then to the Salinas Grandes. Beautiful place highly recommended. Sunglasses are a must, sunscreen and hat recommended and even that you'll start to burn in 30'. Afterwards we drove to San Antonio de los Cobres. The road is uneven gravel and hard, but the scenery and the constant herds ...

... première classe en avion. Ce sont évidemment les plus chers. Les "semi-cama" que nous avions réservés, ne s'abaissent pas complètement mais restent néanmoins très confortables. En plus de cela, on vous sert à manger et à boire pendant tout le trajet (champagne pour les camas!) A notre arrivée, le temps est nuageux, nous avons eu de la pluie pendant une bonne partie de la nuit. Nous trouvons facilement notre hostel et nous ...

... and was the best option (just I came back by foot at least) The view was still very nice but after 20 min of the top the sun vanished and the humid cold come. I went down almost running as I did not bring warm clothes. In the evening I met some friend and I went to eat in ''Viejo Jack'' one of the best place to eat Bife de Chorizo. As it was my last day I ate a bife de ...
