Arrival in Buenos Aires with the expectation that the city of Tango creates in my head and feet of lead to be commonly recognized as a port of merchandise with a strong culture of Italian immigrants. The central plant is in a English city made of blocks of buildings that used to live, to eat and to measure distances: each cuadra are typically 100 house numbers and 3 minute trip, and the unit of measurement of distance urban. The English heritage
did not discount green areas in downtown, but the appearance of buildings and grand in scale and grandeur, wide roads with traffic related to Italian style.
I have a problem with transport in general salts on the bus if you have the coins corresponding to the ticket makes you sense the driver down in the middle of 9 de Juli or with rucksack and backpack and a ' confused idea of \u200b\u200bwhere you should go. In bank to change notes into coins and then take the bus. Strange system, I think.
Mrs. Amalia San Nicholas hostel tells me sarcastically that the heirs of our villagers are a black market for coins and sell them to the metallurgical industries, which pay more than nominal value to grab the metal, hence the shortage of small change everywhere, signs indicating that there is no change, and so on. Po'stressante as a long-term perspective of life, the poor porteños make a virtue of necessity and where possible so it can happen that it feels cheated by the bar on duty at the time of paying the bill ..
peculiaretá Another is the fact that anyone apart from the newsagents is able to give correct information. If you do not have the map the city can walk indefinitely, in perpetual motion until exhaustion. The nice thing is that everybody knows in Buenos Aires, but still lost in the crazy practice of the tourist.
Apart from these small inconsistencies, there are places that really deserve a visit such as Boca with its harbor area, its colors and its social realities beyond the tango dancers who juggles for tourists. It is a neighborhood was born poor in many parts still such dangerous after a certain hour, but terribly charming. The true BA immigrants (Italians, specifically) is here, away from residential buildings put up by a left knee was too many times by outside interests. Other typical neighborhood and enchanting, San Telmo, is based on the old bar where you can eat asado tango and playing until late and on Sundays there is a market with all kinds of crafts nearby. In the center instead
the pomp of some buildings seems almost a theatrical setting or a memory of some good old days, when you come into contact with the Argentine system, we realize that the appearance of European cities (thousands of places that seem to many places several of the old continent) is shattered by a state that Funzine so-so, with great efforts from the people (tired to be honest) to meet the shortcomings of rules, morals and common sense. I left as a souvenir a couple of sheets of two complaints in public places, but I doubt that anyone will ever read. A
Rosario I am welcomed by Paula makes my one day stay pleasant and relaxing. Apart from the monument to the Argentine flag and the Museum of Che (fairly recent), the real magic is the Paraná River flowing placidly beneath the level of the city and under the bar and at night becomes a meeting place for young people leaving to get some fresh air . Step 3
days Cordoba that preserves the structure of the colonial cities and some very beautiful buildings. I sleep two brands together with other people, big house and the environment made familiar by the tranquility of elephantine Marcio, from his great asado and accompanying music Neapolitan Carosone at the forefront, skidding to a childhood spent with a father napolentano. The bus station sucks me and so I stay a day longer than expected. I stop in S. Ignacio Minì after 22 hours of travel, a good choice to leave the city and enjoy nature before returning to Brazil. The region of Misiones , once belonging to Paraguay and then sottrattagli with the war of the Triple Alliance, is full of the Jesuit missions built in the eighteenth century and lasted just 150 years, ie until the kings of Spain and Portugal have decided that these friars who instructed the Indians and taught them to fight for their land were uncomfortable with the Pope to officially cancel the sense of mission and the Jesuit order after some time. Remains of the ruins and the jungle that is recovering the space usurpatole centuries ago, in a mixture of the sacred forest and that brought me back to the tales of Kipling in the East.
then I head to Puerto Iguazu to see the famous waterfalls. Gaston received me in his wooden house which is so uniform that brings together ranger to work.

Well, the park is the falls something incredible, inexplicable, unique. The Iguaçu River is huge loop and changes of level, several hundred feet, giving rise to all types of water that cascade down to form from one level to another: gorges, multiple jumps, a wall of water, jets coming out from the rocks, etc.. It is a celebration of life, a show that is not worth describing, only contemplate the many viewpoints in the park has.
Thanks to the indulgence and kindness by Gaston back several times in the most exciting to the end of enjoying this amazing miracle.
