Entry from: Buenos Aires, Argentina Entry Title: "The Paris of South America" Entry: "Friday Up late we head out in the heat (about 29 degrees), the city is bustling and a marked contrast to Antarctica or even Ushuaia! We wander around through a park with lots of heart sculptures decorated differently and then towards the beautiful old train station, Torres de Londres (like a mini Big Ben, but sadly closed to climb up). The architecture is very Parisien as are the very wide avenues and boulevards. We buy our bus tickets for a couple of days time to Mendoza and have lunch in a canteen which sets us back about 3 quid for a huge meal and drink. It is so cheap here - we love it! We then get the metro to Congreso via a line with wooden olde carriages which was cool. The Congress is a massive imposing building in a huge square. We were hoping to go inside but its closed as an impending demonstration is looming and it is therefore surrounded in barricades and some police. We walk through the square and down to the Broadway section of BA to see equally naff plays as you would at home. We get to Teatro Colon which is a 2500 seater theatre and beautiful to boot. There is an opera on tomorow which we hope to go to but find out its actually somewhere else and fully booked til Sunday so bang goes that plan. Then ...

Entry from: Iguazu, Argentina Entry Title: "One of the seven wonders of the world" Entry: "There's much debate over what are the modern seven wonders of the world. There's a campaign at the moment for the 7 naural wonders. Iguazu just got our vote. We arrived at Foz de Iguazu airport in Brazil around 3:30pm and were collected by Edgardo Morales, a driver organized through our Hotel in Puerto Iguazú, Argentina. His car was waiting for us just outside the airport doors and within 15 minutes, we were at the Brazilian falls. Working in the tourist industry, he was able to buy two tickets for us through the tour guide desk, which saved us at least an hour queuing with the 100+ other people waiting to buy tickets. Edgardo took our suitcases with him and arranged to meet us back at the front gates at 6pm so off we went. This Brazilian side of the falls really do give an excellent panorama and sense of the size of the falls (I believe there are over 200 falls in total). The winding trail up to the Garganta del Diablo (Devil's Throat) gave plenty of opportunities for superb photos (if you can find a gap among all the tourists trying to do the same thing!). Near the end of the trail, there is a walkway out into the river with the falls crashing down nearby -- to get wet, but in the scorching temperatures ...
