Oh the lovely city of Cordoba is supposed to be the culture center of South America. It was beautiful and very European. While Elisa and I were there we visited the Che Guevara museum in a small town outside Cordoba called Alta Gracia. It was nice and informative and we got to see where Che grew up and learna bout his cause. On another day we visited el museo de las bellas artes and it was all Argentinian artwork for the most part and showed a nice variety of work.

the best part of our time in Cordoba was Halloween! The hostel we were staying at had a Halloween party and I was personally responsible for putting eyeliner on at least 3 guys! Woohoo. Elisa and I searched all day for costumes and ended up buying a bunch of princess stuff. We had wands, crowns, and lots of glitter! It was a good night from what I remember!

Next we went to Iguazu falls and stayed at a hostel that was an old casino resort and it was a beautiful seeting. A huge pool in the front drew Elisa and I in like a magnet an we sat out there for 2 days straight absorbing the sun and trying to stay cool in the extreme heat and humidity. After two days at the pool we headed to the falls…one of the 7 natural wonders of the world. All I could say the whole time is ¨this is so amazing¨! We went on a speed boat that goes right up in front of the falls and you get completely soaked. It was so much fun and for me a little terrifying as I was reliving some memories from our rafting tour. The waves at the bottom of the falls were pretty intense. Elisa rated it as one of her top favorite things we have done on the trip and again what I have to say to that is …it was so amazing!!! There is no way pictures could do the waterfalls justice. The walkways bring you out and all you can see is the water all around you and it is rushing with such power and ferocity. Undoubtedly one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen in my life!!!

Let me just throw this in quick…YAY OBAMA! People in Argentina have been much happier and friendlier already when we say we are American. Our cab driver today said Obama and him were brothers! I am proud to be an American again. (Sorry to those of you who may have voted otherwise. Just my opinion…)

Now we are back in Buenos Aires for a huge music festival that will have over 100,ooo people there and go for nearly 20 hours! These Argentinians are crazy!!!
