The perfect steak, almost

... still gonna do it but we read the book about it some more and to put it in perspective, about Buenos Aires it warns you to steer clear of the non tourist streets of La Boca or you may be relieved of your valuables, which we found out to be pretty reliable advice. And thats all it says really, of Rio it says this:

  • Do not leave your hotel with anything you can afford to lose!
  • Don't take any buses after dark, take taxis
  • Don't take ...

Mixed Review of the Sixth Hill to the West

... Salvo, the sister building to Palacio Barolo in Buenos Aires. Unfortunately, the lighthouse has been removed from Palacio Salvo, and the building looks like it has a bad haircut.

A few blocks away is the old port area. Here, one of the old warehouses has been turned into the home of several restaurants and a few shops. Each of the restaurants has a parilla for grilling meats. Parillas (pa-ree-shas) are ...

Day 92 - Uruguay

Day 92 Friday 3rd April - Uruguay Spent the day trying to catch a bit of sun on the roof terrace. Even broke the law of the land and sunbathed past 12pm lol. Still don't feel very brown though but maybe that's cos the factor 30 is keeping the burn at bay. When Ismael got home we went to Rocco's bar for some dinner so that we could tak our time getting ready and not have to rush out as soon as we had eaten. Once we'd had ...

Day 86 - Chile to Uruguay

... the hotel we walked over to one of Ismael's friends houses where we were meeting Alexandra and Fifi. They both seem really nice but neither of them spoke any English so Ismael has to be the interpreter lol. We went to a bar that wasn't overly busy when we got there, as it was about 11pm and people go out a lot later here. We got a table and ordered drinks with the waitress and then some bits to eat. The girls ordered it and from the menu it looked like ...

Hasta luego Brasil, Bienvenidos a Uruguay

... looking men in suits having business lunches, and then us in shorts and flip flops. The food was lovely (nice to have a change from the Brazilian diet of cheesey chicken burgers) and cost less than 5 pounds each for a starter, main course, glass of wine and a coffee. Love it! So nice to be in a place that is actually cheap! Much love, Chris and Matt

mate

i am fascinated by the mate culture. everywhere you go, you see all kinds of people from the chic chick to the hippie-schmack barefoot guy to the toothless parking monitor with their trusty thermos-gourd combo. what is it? not everyone is cut out to serve mate. the procedure seems simple when you read it off the pack of mate but don't be fooled. the leaves should be poured into the gourd held angled so that it ...

Land of Steak and Wine

... the plate for about 3 pounds (it´s less than a pound for a huge piece of steak for 2 in the supermarket, and less than 1.50 pounds for a decent bottle of wine, and about 60p for the cheap nasty goon in a carton!!). On the 30th December there was a massive parade through the streets of Buenos Aires, it was in memory of a nightclub fire four years ago that killed 194 people. It was such a good way to celebrate the lives of the people that were lost, with lots of dancing in the ...

Why Uruguay?

... Luckily there wasn't much traffic as we had no walls or windows, no seatbelts, no indicators and didn't always know which way we were allowed to turn down the one way streets! Scarily, a skanky dog took a disliking to the roaring engine, and chased us down the road, nearly jumping into my lap and tearing my throat out but luckily we survived to tell the tale thanks to Nige's expert avoidance driving! After Colonia, we headed to ...

Week 3

... Rep. VP nominee) speaking at RNC at some point in time. He stayed up, standing up, so he wouldn´t fall asleep, and I tried to go to sleep, but ended up taking a very strong sleeping pill and didn´t want to get up that early this morning, sleeping until after 7:30. I asked Pedro (during his daily call) if he thought it was a good idea to ask Eduardo to drive us to the airport instead of the car service (which has been extremely reliable ...
