I finally got to sleep in a real bed last night, and it was amazing. These week has been hectic as we´ve been trying to do a lot of stuff in a small amount of time. Since monday night I´ve spent 50+ hours on a bus, 3 nights sleeping on buses, and one night sleeping in a crowded tent. While the traveling part was terrible we were able to see one of God´s amazing, powerful, and breathtaking creations in Iguazu falls.
So since it´s been a little while since I last wrote, a little backtracking first. Before all our wonderful time on the buses, the last major thing we did in Buenos Aires was go to the San Telmo fair. This is a masive street fair/saturday market that takes place on Sundays, and is filled with antiques (argentinians apparently really like their antiques), tango dancers, street performers, food, and of course random vendors of all types. The most impressive aspect about it was the size of the fair. It makes Saturday Market look like a highschool craft fair. The fair closes down entire streets and goes on for blocks. Where we were staying is right next to the main part/beginning of the fair, by the time we walked through the entire fair we were so far away that we had to take the subway to get back to where we were staying.
Above are some of the pictures from the street fair, The first one is a random street performer, the colorful one is just some random street art/graffiti, and the other two are of the fair.
I ran out of time, only one computer at this hostel, so I´ll upload some pictures of the falls next time.
Yay, love the pictures! Can't wait to see the ones of Iguazu!
