Buenos Aires – strike 3!

Evita Grave

Originally uploaded by kathsmee.

From Colonia, we took the very rapid one hour boat to Buenos Aires where we had a day before we met Paul parents, Ken and Glenda. The day before they arrived, Paul and I visited the antiques market in San Telmo and then enjoyed some well deserved pampering, I had a haircut and waxing – no mean feat in Spanish! and Paul went to the football! The following day we met Pauls parents at the airport, for the start of their three weeks with us in Argentina. They had very kindly put us up in a lovely hotel in Buenos Aires and that night took us out for a lovely meal on the waterfront. They had already been in Argentina for a few weeks visiting many of the sites Paul and I did, so it was lovely to swap travel notes and compare impressions on the sites we’d seen. Whilst in Buenos Aires we also took in a tango show, went for a city tour, Evita museum and all the main touristy things, together with some lovely dinners down on the water front.

After four smelly dirty tiring days in Pisco it was time for us to move on to make our flight to Montevideo. We decided that we would spend a night in Lima which we hadn’t planned to at first, but we needed a shower and a good nights sleep! Actually, for all the bad things we heard about Lima we really quite liked it, or Miraflores anyway, even though it was really expensive! After a night there we took an overnight flight to Montevideo, arriving inconveniently at 4am and spending a couple of hours reading in the airport until the first bus! But the hostel checked us in early and after sleeping till midday we spent the afternoon exploring the city and a couple of museums. The next day we took a day trip to Punta del Este, only a couple of hours away and enjoyed a day on the beach, surrounded by highrise apartments and flash restaurants, what imagine a mini Miami to be like. We would have liked to go further to Punta del Diablo but four days didn’t allow for that and this was as far down the coast as we could manage. The next day we took a but to Colonia to stay there for a couple of nights. It was a lovely little town, helped by the sunshine of course. We climbed the lighthouse, explored all the cobbled streets and little alleyways and then sat on the river edge with a few beers watching the sunset before heading to a funky restaurant where we sat and had dinner in the back of an old mobster like car! Really sweet little town, and although not as cheap as we’d been led to believe, Uruguy was definitely more like the South American prices we liked in Artgentina rather than expensive Ecuador and Peru!

The following day we took a rediculously long (4hrs each way and we left at 5am!) bus to Fray Bentos to see the famous, now closed, pie factory! (Darren, this was mainly in your honour!) It was, I am sorry to say, very miuch now worth the trip, although it was interesting for about half an hour it was all in spanish so a lot of the detail was lost on us. Still, we managed to get away without paying for the museum or the bus back for some reason so it wasn’t all bad! Arrived back to Colonia at about 9pm, to tired to go out never having even got near to an actual pie!
