In Buenos Aires I visited the Capital Federal, San Telmo, Recoleta,
the fruit market of Tigre, the city center, tango bars & events, the Universidad de Buenos Aires (School
of Architecture), Puerto Madero, and stayed at my friend's house in Belgrano. I traveled by subte
(subway), taxi, and as a passenger in my friend's car!
I flew to Iguazu to wander the town and falls,
and toured the Misiones Jesuíticas (a
world heritage site).
I took the Buquebus across the Río de la Plata/River
Plate, a rather strange name for what is translated in Spanish as the River of Silver. I
toured Montevideo that got its name from
Hill/Monte + Number Six/VI + deo
(deo = from east to west, a
sailing direction).
I dropped down to Colonia, another world heritage site.
Then I went home.
