Reef Sandals Vs Air Port Security

circle closes ... Autumn

Great Buenos Aires! With pleasure we return to this city. We stop in the same place where we lived before nearly four months ago. Here, all this began - here, we were hungry, and eagerly waited impressions to start the trip. Here too, everything ends - thousands of pictures, thousands of miles, hundreds of memories, knowledge contained dziasiatki. And only a few days ahead of us. The way we already do not think that anything else that I need to plan ahead.

In Buenos Aires, the upper line in the districts, to visit whom we ran out of time last time. In the colorful La Boca, in the heart of the old San Telmo we watch couples dancing tango performances. Climate nooks, music everywhere, and street artists ...

All for a few days will end, but for now we are still here - in the hot sun, in the Latin American atmosphere. So how can we use a good-bye and set off for a concert of music and professional tango dance lessons in Buenos Aires!

Why Does Charlie Sheen Bowling Shirt

Montevideo in the rhythm of tango.

Mauro, Natalie, and we did. Intend to travel to the world, during which you will
earn dancing tango.
Chances are, with Poland and we will have a chance to see them in action:)


New country, new impressions. We live in a young couple (wedding took place in August 1920 February!) and very quickly found a common language. What's more - we had become Polish cooks and teachers, Mauro and Natalia however are our teachers and guides to tango capital of Uruguay! On the first day of beautiful weather (Montevideo welcomed us in the autumn storms and torrential rains. It was hard on the legs were supported by walking through a windy, gray streets of the city) take us on a trip to the city scooters. We admire the sandy beaches stretching along the entire city, various districts of the city can differ in many respects, old buildings, parks and squares. Az beautiful weather finally turns into a tropical storm. Pink lightning rend the sky, warm rain beating with great speed in the exposed parts of the body (well, just what was surely the 30 degrees!) mercilessly hurt. Within a few minutes the streets, under the covers a huge storm clouds, t in the darkness and turn into a violent streams. Everything soaked to the skin and the smiles on their lips ...


we went with Natalie topic comments mens on the street.
Not to mention the registration of personal watercraft.



Rozswietlone downtown and old town of Montevideo
- the view from Cerro neighborhood in which you live.



District is a district of Cerro Immigrants (Practically the whole population of Uruguay are immigrants). Among the street names we found and Polish! However, it seems that this is one of the worst quality of the street (practically, it simply does not exist - in places it looks like a path between the bushes wydetana), what we have seen so far in Montevideo ...

Uruguayans - regardless of everything - always with a thermos and mate under the armpit. This even happens in churches. In Uruguay mate is much more popular than in Argentina (in Argentina, although not przypuszcalismy that this is impossible). According to previous observations, the inhabitants of each of the visited countries so far (except Bolivia, which is a completely different world) they think the same food and habits happened to be the most characteristic of their homeland. And everywhere, when you share our observations, we meet with major mines and mild indignation!


Tango ... Our first steps tango give the impression that were to be backed up with passion ... Music and dance pulls us, makes a great pleasure and after the second lesson we already have a successful first basic figures. But unfortunately our stay in Montevideo coming to an end, and science will have to continue in Poland. What will come of this - we'll see!


also spent a little time to observe the hummingbirds, who would like to arrive to the patio. Believe me, this picture is a hummingbird and this is one of the best photos that we managed to do. These small wonders of nature are simply elusive ...

What Do White Wolves Mean To Indians



With Salty-measure quickly moved to one of the oldest cities in Argentinian (size dorownujacemu Warsaw). Cordoba was founded with the end of the sixteenth century. The city of course, retains the character of most Latin American - layout of the streets here as everywhere like checkerboards. Cordoba, between the new, multi-storey buildings hidden treasures of world heritage by UNESCO. Streets besieged by crowds.

live on the outskirts of town, again using the hospitality of people belonging to the Hospitality Club. At home, we find after a few Poles podrozojacych America more or less as much time as we do. Magda Adam, however, are traveling by a completely different route, so it was nice to powymieniac their experience and insights. After one day it comes out that once we met already in Warsaw, and we have mutual friends!

Fatima no longer traveling in August gives us so much to enjoy exploring the city. We go in search of the Polish community in Cordoba, guided by the following specified address. Unfortunately - and this time it does not end successfully. What's more, it could end up bad, because by chance we find in the seemingly quiet in August, but dangerous districts of the city, and we become victims of assault niedoszlymi. The fact is that if the thieves really depended on the theft, that they did not have the slightest problem with the two of us (they were three young men). Fortunately, only one of them showed the greatest aggression so using the opportunity to przepychankach ran out into the streets, on which (for our help) came up two floors coach excursion. He opened the door and jumped into gear inside ... The driver then offered us a drink, Argentine alfajores cookies and warned that Cordoba is safe for tourists only in the center. We got on the bus station.

It was bad, it must be better: A chance encounter in August for a promotional bus tickets from Cordoba to Montevideo - direct, at a low price! Amazing - are the place to-morrow, and will be first-class coach to the extent then we took. Without thinking about buying tickets. We need something new, in Uruguay was not even us ... So, tomorrow we leave!

Nike Vapor Trail Limited Edition Silver

XVI century Cordoba Argentina, Argentina! Back to civilization. Marathon

bus to the border of Argentina's boliwijsko drove off. Drove off on time. What's more - drove off ahead of time, so we had only hope that everyone who would like him I take - did so. Because the fact that people are more than places of sitting of anything not provided. The journey proceeded without major surprises. Among the smaller became one again, and the stench of burning engine problems running it several times to coach. So nothing serious.

Crossing the border did not cause any problems, nor had to pay for anything, przetrzepywali nor our luggage - one could say with some we felt unsatisfied and disappointed: it went like clockwork. We were also able to cheat on coach Salty! We drove at night and only then started to search luggage ... Twice we blew up police stations in the middle of the night, lined in queues with the luggage and more or less scrupulous police took out things from your bags and searching for the items, suitcases, etc. Many obmacujac bag of coca leaves he found in August, but despite that the coca Argentina is illegal, the police was looking at it seriously.

In Salta we also met a surprise, this time from the accommodation - the first time, Hospitality Club has failed, what seems apparent with "niedogadania" between family members, so not wishing to cause trouble and live in an atmosphere skwaszonej we went to look for cheap hostel.
live rally in the city center. Churches, cathedrals, monuments, colonial architecture and random visits to a family of Polish origin when searching Kola Poles in Salt - as time passes. Our bodies after a long stayed at altitudes dochodza to each other and we can breathe peacefully full breastfeeding.

Bloons Ipod Touch Walkthrough Pack 3 Level 28

problems, surprises and adventures. BOLIVIA. Dry

Bolivia. Here, for the first time it was said to us "gringos." Here we had the first big problem (luckily not threatening our life:)). Here, the first time we felt like in the developing country August. Bolivia stands out in every way from Argentina and Chile, with whom we can already say something and we have strong opinions. Bolivia threw us on their knees with their landscapes and wonders of nature. Delighted that the tradition alive, as you can see at every step. But for 7 days spent so far in Bolivia befallen us more problems than the whole trip together. Problems arising everywhere, nasty surprises, adventures. But what would be a four-month trip without problems? ... And it was this:
Already at the border of Chile-Bolivia appears first problem. Previously we examined the information regarding the border crossing, visa and other requirements set at the entrance to Bolivia. Not a word on stamp. The fee was not very high, but the problem lay in the fact that we had with you only deducted for the bus to the border to the Chilean peso Uyuni. The two places we learned about the cost of bus ticket. Already at the end of the road when one of the drivers began to collect money for the tickets (which you can feel or not we got did not see the eyes), it turns out that there are nearly a half times more expensive. Immediately after arriving to Uyuni we go to an ATM so I would pay the remainder of money for tickets. On the streets of Uyuni carnival is in full swing (it is one of the last of his days.) It is hard to penetrate the dry ATM (the love of every Bolivian - old and young - is probably during the carnival throwing water balloons at passers-by and flow around guns (rifles in order ... bazukami!) of water.)
Traditionally clad women, the traditional "bar street" in Uyuni
ATM does not work. It is Sunday afternoon. Monday and Tuesday is a national holiday, during which the party in the streets in August increases. ATM these days does not intend to start working. Debt, a handful of Bolivian money (luckily it operates office and we had a remnant Argentinean pesos) we had before him visions of starvation for 2 days and live in hostels on credit. Bread and water or less starczyly the experience, He was also, unfortunately, the height at which we were, and to which we were not accustomed to. Slight headache, fatigue, rapid heartbeat. So since past 2.5 days (plus fleeing before flying balloons with water, but unfortunately without success - we felt like beaten dogs). On the fourth day - after the end of carnival opened the bank! And started to repair ATM! Hope grows in her eyes. Before an ATM is thirty tourists. Behind us, over time, the second set behind. The first successful extract money, finished in an ovation ... after 40 minutes and we have money! Overdue payments to homes, also paid a three-day trip to the region of Potosi and two hours later sitting in a Toyota Land Cruiser dziurawymi road racing toward world's largest saline soils - Salar de Uyuni.
Endless Salt farmland, houses and hotels made from salt, cacti kilkunastometrowe with more than 1,200 years. Volcanoes, geysers, hot magma of the earth. Colorful lakes, flamingos, llamas and vicuña. Fancy shapes of rocks, deserts. Everything in the company of four other tourists, and gay couples Bolivia - Dalia our cook and driver / conductor Franz (both were 20 years old and had already experienced workers).
trip a success wonderfully. We could finally off of Uyuni and our local problems. The only thing that stood in our way to altitude sickness (reduced coca leaves). We stayed at over 4200 meters (with gusts of up to 5300), to which our bodies have not had time to get used.

After returning from a trip, a bit tired but with smiles on their lips, and an unimaginable number of photos waiting for us last, a short night Uyuni. About 5:30 is to be substituted by coach to Villazón - the city lying on the border with Argentina. The weather broke, at sunrise penetrating cold uprzykrzalo we wait for the late coach of course. Arrived at 8:00 and really only then the problems started. Trip, having last for 9-10h turns into misery. At a time when the blog takes longer replenished 27.5 h. Roads in Bolivia poprzecinaly fast-flowing rivers. Before one of them had to wait, surrounded by beautiful dunes (which are beautiful but then underestimated), and the water level. Drops, falls or not? In total, it is not known. The driver says that we have to wait, so we wait.

waiting in the desert until the water level the river drops and you'll be able to keep going ...
with two rolls and a bottle of water in a backpack ... 4 hours later we set off and with my heart in my throat cross river. Coach carnage, tilts, roar, and finally leaves for the other side ... Then I was waiting us many stops (at every opportunity, when the smoke fill the interior of the coach about the smell of burning engine with an obstacle on the road were lying in a frayed the edges of stones). After nearly 12 hours, we reach the first town where we had to be after 3 - 4 hours of driving. On the spot turns out that we will go no further, because the bus is not suitable for this. We look forward to the substitution of another. Moments later, however, the driver changes his mind and says that today we will not go at all, because in the mountains and rain can be very dangerous on the roads. We spend the night in a coach standing in the parking lot in town, curled in a Chinese "9". In the morning, before sunrise we set off the same bus (the night he found a city engineer, first unfolded and then paid a coach for parts - I think successfully). Another, very slow passage through the mountains, canyons and beautiful abyss to Tupizy, where he finally kiss goodbye to the old coach and wait for change to the boundary. We had to wait 40 minutes, wait more than 4 hours ...
And just at that moment forward. Keep your fingers crossed for it to coach drove off on time (or at all drove off) and reached the place! And lest the border boliwijsko Argentina's tax collector is not doing none of the problems who knows what ...
