Our first night in BA saw us catch up with Amanda, Anthony´s Westfield ...

... had 2 big steaks, chips and veg and 2 cokes for just over 20 euro between us and this would be an expensive restaurant-cant wait to try other places for steak whilt here-we are meeting up woth the gang from Dublin tonight for a meal and drinks in another restaurant that was recomended by many people so looking forward to that.

Anyhow, this meant another trip to the bus station was required, so off we set, finding it so much more easily second time round. After treating ourselves to a Choripan (a spicy sausage sandwich), we were back in time for the football game - Boca Juniors vs Newells. The tour pack came with instructions on how to keep safe "Only cheer for Boca Juniors - it´s a matter of ...

... fire works. At about 4.00am Dan and walked like the village drunks in some old Irish folk novel to a club called "International Party" where disco danced to such hits as "Girls and boys - by blur" and "Just can´t get enough - by Depeeche mode". We had a good night and got home late, or early (depending how you look at it). After a days recovery we made plans to head to Salta, north west Argentina.

The traffic is maddening yet the city has countless spots that are an oasis of tranquility and there's always something interesting to see ...

... for things in shops and restaurants and understand alot. You could maybe mistake him for an Argentine with his new tan lighter hair and Spanish words. haha.
