Cordoba

---

Well we're now in Cordoba. We arrived 7.10am yesterday after taking overnight bus from Buenos Aires. Ended upbooking directly through Omnia bus company's office as cheaper than rates we'd been given via hostel. Travelled 3rd class and surprisingly comfy much more leg room than economy class on plane! Slept pretty well too apart from when they switched lights on at 1.30am for a 30min stop! Staying at Cordoba Backpackers which isn't as goodaslast place but it does have hot water although we had no water at allthis morning!! Have now shared 2 showers with an earwig which is quite scary forsomeonewho has an earwig phobia! Caught bus for2 hr tripto Villa General Belgrano which is a German and Swiss style town but disappointingly no German was being spoken. Very touristy but did walk up steep hill in blistering heat to a memorial and had some good views. It was great to get out in countryside for fresh air and nature. Didn't see any interesting animals but thought we spotted humming birds. No guinea pigs but we did see wild ones in a park in BA the other day! Now off in search of some ice cream so will be in touch again soon
