The Lads Take Over
This was our first city stop in Argentina and our main thing here was to seek out the birth place of Che Guevara, lol!Well we found it and could not be more disappointed it just a block of apartments and a pole on the outside (not for dancing with)saying birthplace of Che Guevara.

However, the city of Rosario is lovely, there have fantastic architecture and lots of shopping woo hoo. There is a massive river and of course you can take trips down this or just sit in a restaurant and have a few scoops and bite to eat.
Basically, its possible to have dinner at any time as we discovered one night on the vino, Ciara and Claire were speaking to a local couple for awhile and they recommended a restaurant that had excellent beef at a very good price. On their advice we ended up heading there not noticing the time, we all ordered no problems and then someone noticed the time it was 12am in the morning but that still did not stop us eating it lol!

There are some sights to see in Rosario the monumento a la bandera, which you will also see on their 10 pesos note, is a tower which you can view the city.
Our accommodation was a little unusual though slightly funny, the building itself was old Victorian style. Our room was just simply a square box with no windows and an unusual large mirror on one wall. Ciara's and Anthony room was a bright room with a balcony, a cornered off bathroom, a mirror suspended from the roof directly over their beds and or course the lovely dimmer switches. yes this was an unusual kind of Victorian building lol.
Rosario is a nice chilled out place for a few days so after two nights we got on the bus heading for the direction of Beunos Aires.
