So, a quick summary of the day, while I let the meat feast of dinner digest and await the perfect hour for the tango hot spots to kick off….
Was awoken at 5am by the most inconsiderate, annoying traveller I have ever come across. This bird came home pissed at 3am, shook my bunk all night (in the wrong way, she was bunked below me), then proceeded to pee every 30 minutes before deciding 5.10am was the time she conduct a full repack of all her bongos. Everything was in noisy plastic bags by the way. Anyway, the whole process took one hour fifteen, none of which I was able to sleep through. I think I did a good job not to gaffer tape her and leave her in the foot locker by my bed.
So, as she pissed off at 6.30am, it was time to start my day.

Went walking big time today. Such an awesome vibe in BA. I initially took the metro with about 3 platform changes, only to realise later when above ground, it was all so close, I would have been far better off walking. So that’s what I did. The hustle and bustle of the myriad one way streets is captivating. Reminds me of why I like people watching so much. And the women…. Jeez, where to start.

No shortage of punters out enjoying the very best life has to offer here, great friends, perfect weather and famous food!

Plaza De Mayo in San Telmo

So after a nice little 30 min sleep right on that green grass you see, it was time to head back to the hostel and book tomorrow’s trip. Off to Boriloche to explore the lakes and mountains. A bit of drama arranging flights, but that another story. Got there in the end.

Then it was time for the ‘Asado’ ‘ – Argentina BBQ.

Very famous, but I didn’t realise they did one of the best cook ups in San Telmo at this hostel. Myself and a Spanish Vet,David, living in Tierra Del Fuago, were the only from the hostel to buy in. All the rest where outsiders.

ARS100 ($22Aus) seems too much for backpackers these days, but man, I would have paid double!

So, it’s about time to get changed and go Tango!!!!!!
