rosario- place of birth of che guevara, lovely little town... had our first offical day off when we just lounged around and watched tv. mainly some crappy celebrity channel i am afraid to say... next day saw some monuments and some lovely buildings... next day tried to go to some museums, which were obviously shut, which we should be getting used to now! but we did find an empty park with swings which our bums could fit on, so that was brilliant as we hadn't been on swings for years!!!
oh we also found our first veggie place which was a chinese buffet and was delicious cos it wasn't cheese!! and in the evening we found a fast food place selling soya burgers, so i was extremely happy that day!
cordoba-our first cold day- not nice at all... was raining and cold and grey and miserable like it is in london... so actually felt a bit homesick that day!! but its a nice town and there was lots of historical stuff... which we saw on the first day on an open top bus like proper tourists in london do... it was drizzling, so felt right at home!
also went
to see the first jesuit missions which are in a town just a little away from here- in
alta gracia , and we also saw one of the houses that che guevara lived in, which was AMAZING to see! i really admire the guy, after seeing the motorcycle diaries and reading up on him, so that has to be one of the highlights of my trip so far.
next diary will be for buenos aries... which one of the other 2 will do as i am of to explore santa rosa... which you will hear about soon as well.
