Sigh I lived in Paraguay from 1976-80... It doesn't look as if it has changed too terribly much. Except that country road photo looks very smooth. What happened to the beautiful cobblestones on the way to ARegua? ARe they still there. San B. We used to hang out there. Lago Ypacarai... what color is the water now?
It was such a peaceful place where the good things in life were celebrated.
Thanks for the memories.
I remember those ditch/waterway things! I was terrified of falling into one while walking through town staring at all sorts of things! When will you be home?!?!
Good bye Bye-bye Argentina, welcome to Cherry Hill!
Thank you for giving us an opportunity to learn something about S. America.
See you very-very soon.
i wanted to go here i so wanted to go to cafayate -next time! did you see the 5 star hotel they recently built out of one of the vineyards -it is a starwood resort and i am still working towards enough starwood points to stay there... someday.
The End? Oh No! I am addicted to reading your blog - what to do now? Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Where to next? Mendoza looks nice, by the way.
The end??? The end to your adventures? ... sounds good... The end to your blog?? No! Please do another one... Anyway, thanks for the pleasure that you gave me!
Sounds like Salta is a great place to visit - we'll definitely add it to our itinerary if we ever go back to Argentina. And having free t.p. makes it even more appealing!
Free advertisement for Salta Without realizing it, you just wrote an attractive piece for a newspaper published by the Salta’s tourist office. If I, as a potential visitor, was reading it somewhere I would start making plans to go visit Salta and its surroundings immediately. I would still do (maybe not today) especially after hearing about it from you and seeing the pictures. Thank you for posting many pictures you know that I can never get enough of them
Natulya, the views are spectacular. It was very nice to learn about the hospitality of Salta. And you are so close to your "home" in BA now and your real home in CH. We love you.
Don't you mean "colours"! Lookin good girl. You back in BA now? Treat yourself to something nice in BA, it sounds like you've been roughin it too much. Kisses Jo
WOW I guess I can't complain anymore about the 12 hour drive to Cleveland. You really have become a seasoned traveler. The blog is amazing! Sorry I am just finding it today. Keep writing :)
overbussed? With all the pain and problems of local bus travel, it wouldn't surprise me if most of the population in the little dusty towns you passed through are former transit bus travelers who just gave up and stayed behind rather than taking the next leg of their trip. I hope you will not join their ranks and complete your journey.
Miss your car? You have become a seasoned bus rider. Just imagine how strange (but wonderful) it would feel while driving your own car in about 3 weeks.
maps.google.com Take a look at the Salt Flats on Google Maps (satellite or hybrid view). It really is a huge white blob amongst all the green and brown. Typing in Uyuni, Bolivia will get you there.
