Another Montivideo so to speak. Stayed two nights which was plenty for anybody. The Che Pampa's hostel, nice spot, v cold tho. The main attraction to this place is probably the fact that Che Guevara was born here. There`s a few monuments to see the biggest one being the Monumento Nacional a la Bandera which is pretty cool but other than that there`s nothing much. Didn`t go out either, place didn`t seem like the most happening spot, then again it was mid week and we were in tatters from Buenos Aires. Met a cool guy Andreus Starc. He`s our new calim to fame in that he is an ex Puma international player. He`s got three caps but then bust up his knee unfortunately. He`s a dairy farmer now in argintina, bit of a genius too as he kenw a lot about a lot. He gave us a brief history on the whole government and economy of argentina and it was really really interesting I have to say. Andy if your reading this I beat the crap out of you in the next arm wrestle. I think you had the unfair advantage of 45 years of argentinian steaks inside of ya.
