Windsor Tower Cordoba

We arrived this morning knowing we did not want to spend long in another city and knowing we wanted to head to Mendoza as soon as we could. Rob decided we would leave our baggage at the bus terminal and get the bus this evening so I write this now having spent yesterday wondering around Rosario, the night on the bus and now another day walking around a city. We smell and are tired but have ...

... the attraction though as people we passed on the street looked as though they'd never seen the bus before!<br><br>We also visited a Jesuit Crypt that was discovered beneath one of the main streets about 20 years ago. Due to our lack of Spanish we didn't get all the details but it was an unusual place to visit and is now used as an exhibition space for art and musical performances - took a while to realise that and it was ...

... We also went to watch a film at the cinema (The Proposal) which was in English and subtitled in Spanish. <br><br>We also visited a few of the museums. The natural history museum was really good but the art museum was a bit like walking into a GCSE art class. Lee claims that even his seagulls were better?! We did however visit another art museum where the standard of art was much ...

... streets. Their ice cream tastes very good too! Maybe the ice cream trumps the walking I did. Anyway I decided tomorrow I will take a day time bus for a 10 hour drive to Mendoza, and their premier winemaking region. The weather is a comfie 27 degrees Celsius.

... black against the glowing sky. We reached the Buenos Aires ferry terminal around 10pm. I needed to get to the bus terminal, so I jumped in a cab for the 1km or so journey. I found a bus departing 5mins later, so ran downstairs to buy a drink before jumping on the bus. We arrived in Cordoba in the morning (about 10 hours later) and again I had no idea what I was doing. I hadn´t heard from my friends, so I put my ...

... was pretty crazy because once they anounced the cars and teams on the stage they would drive down and out through the huge crowd of people. I also saw a soccer game and a couple art museums. The hostel I stayed in was really cool, plus I met up with some buddies that I had met before.

... dude parallel park his horse and cart. No kidding. Good effort. 2. Old school police motorcycles - What's better than a police motorcycle? A police motorcycle with a sidecar! Brilliant. Check my photos if you don't believe me. 3. Sega Genesis 3 - This videogame bab boy (also known as the Sega Megadrive), was cool back in 1992. Someone forgot to tell Cordoba, because in 2 shop windows you could pick one of these up, with Sonic the Hedgehog game thrown in, for a cool ...

Another week in Cordoba and I am already starting to feel at home in this city. Sunshine all week, exploring the city centre and the park, just having a relaxed time ;-) Sunday afternoon we had a big Barbecue on the rooftop of the hostel.... yummy! And I got to meet another of my friend's friends, who took me out to a Rock Nacional Club for loads of drinks and dance and then a ...

Today we went horseback riding in the mountains outside of Cordoba. Our Hostel (Tango Hostel) knew a guy (the absolutely suave Fabrizio) who owned a ranch and set up little groups for us to go and check it out. All for 100 pesos we had the one hour drive out to Unquillo (his ranch, horseback riding lessons and an absolutely delicious barbecue lunch. Unquillo is absolutely calm and gorgeous. Worth a visit if you have a prearranged ...
