Salta - April 2012

Welcome to Argentina!

We had a couple of days in Salta, upon recommendation from Manny, however in hindsight this may have been half a day too long.
There isn't a whole lot to do here, but this did not stop us from entertaining ourselves whilst avoiding museums and Cathedrals.


We walked to the Salta cable car, which took us up to a nice garden/waterfall area which looked over the city. Very picturesque.


Then went in search of a famous Argentinian steak (for Rory - I went with the fish option) and vino tinto that not only blew our backpackers budget, but our stomachs, as neither of us could finish the meal.


 The following day we had a bus ride at 11pm so spent all day wandering around the city. Not a whole lot to do unless you're interested in museums and catherdrals, but nice to relax after some full on travelling over the past month.

Re-grouped, refreshed, and relaxed we took an overnight bus to Cordoba on one of the most comfortable overnight buses ever. This bus rivalled business class - I'd know. The company was Balut, and the class was coche carma. Literally slept till we woke up in Cordoba! Win.
